“Una introspección artística en los estudiantes de undécimo grado de la Institución Educativa Carlos Pérez Escalante mediante técnicas de dibujo y pintura enfocadas en la individualidad del autorretrato libre”

Abstract

This study, titled “An Artistic Introspection in 11th Grade Students Through Drawing and Painting Techniques Focused on Individuality in Free Self-Portrait aimed to promote artistic introspection among eleventh-grade students, specifically those in class 11-01. Using free self-portrait as a medium, the project sought to provide students with a personal connection opportunity during a pivotal phase of their academic journey, marking a transition towards future stages. The pedagogical approach was grounded in drawing and painting techniques, designed to explore each student's identity through an introspective lens, helping them express emotions and experiences in a reflective context. Through this artistic practice, the study created a space for self-exploration, allowing students not only to develop artistic skills but also to strengthen their identity and project themselves within the context of their educational development. The self-portrait, thus, emerged as a meaningful and symbolic alternative to more ephemeral forms of self-representation, fostering a profound self-view.
