Disponível em: <https://www.revistas.ufg.br/interacao/article/view/4243/4173>.e- 1981-8416http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/13844Studies on environmental perception rarely treat of daily living, leisure or work, which shape our way of living and make possible the construction of conceptions and topophilic links which are the basis of our relationship with the place in which we live. In this study, the technical scientific reason behind modernity is discussed as well as our resultant distancing from nature and the world in which we live as a direct consequence of changes in life and work. A concrete rural reality is described, highlighting possible meanings of preservation of the space-work relationship of those who live in the surroundings of the Serra de Caldas State Park in Goiás. To do so, the referential theory of phenomenology was used as well as certain anthroposophical considerations, critiques and aesthetic education.porAcesso AbertoEducação ambientalPercepção ambientalTrabalhoFenomenologiaEnvironmental educationEnvironmental perceptionWorkPhenomenologyArtigo10.5216/ia.v33i1.4243
