La pintura como estrategia de intervención para la resignificación de espacios públicos y construcción de imaginarios urbanísticos en Terrón Colorado

Abstract

Based on the sociological theory of symbolic interactionism proposed by Blumer (1969), the aim is to determine how artistic practices can lead to the re-meaning of public spaces and the change in urban imaginations of the Terrón Colorado neighbourhood population in Santiago de Cali. Using a qualitative methodology will allow us to understand reality from each person's lived experience, and through the development of semi-structured interviews, we will seek to identify changes in the imaginary, the meaning and the use of public space, as an effect of art urban.

For its development, the ethnographic method was used, carrying out semistructured interviews and non-participant observation, which yielded some results for the analysis and conclusions of this work, determining that art has always been a life tool to express the opinions of women. people about urban changes and public spaces, while allowing them to have a deeper understanding of the history and current issues of spaces and communities. The above leads to a direct connection with a sense of belonging and active participation through the space that belongs to them, because it is a place for meeting, entertainment and connection
