Metodologia de oficina com bonecos de resíduos têxteis: educação, arte e ambiente

Abstract

This Thesis treats with the workshop’s methodology using textile waste puppets, in the approaches of education, art and environment. In this path, in parallel with educational, artistic and environmental contexts, we meet with interdisciplinarity’s reading, contextualization and creation’s processes through puppets. The principal research question is: How can the workshop’s methodology make a difference, and highlights the production, consumption and inappropriate deposit’s conditions of textile waste? The workshop’s methodology passed through the enchanted hands of cultural and cognitive beings, to transfigure textile waste through reuse and repurpose. The central objective of the research was to explore the potential of textile waste, as a raw material, through the puppets workshop’s methodology, in educational, artistic and environmental contexts. After the bibliographic survey, the following specific objectives were defined: literature review, using digital and physical library collections; planning and preparing puppets workshops using textile waste as raw material; and application of the education, art and environment workshop’s methodology. The research favored the workshop’s methodology, with a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive approaches, and included a literature review, data collection in board journals, interviews, conversations and evaluations with workshop participants. The Thesis’ results validated the workshop’s methodology for knowledge’s appropriation from the triad of education, art and environment. The textile waste puppets, with their own cultural expressions, used in workshops, were sewing, with colorful threads, relationships, enchantments, interactions, meanings, aesthetics and creations.
