Projeto Pilares: a intervenção artística como dispositivo pedagógico na Faculdade de Artes Visuais (FAV - UFG)

Abstract

This Final Course Project analyzes the Pilares Project as an artistic intervention and pedagogical device within the building of the Faculty of Visual Arts at the Federal University of Goiás (FAV-UFG). Grounded in a/r/tography and relational aesthetics, the research investigates how collective and individual practices of occupying institutional in-between spaces can generate student belonging, activate formative processes, and reconfigure the educational environment as a territory of creation. Based on the design, implementation, and monitoring of the three stages of the project, we discuss the materialities, procedures, and experiences that shaped the process, articulating artist notebooks, records, observations, dialogues, and unforeseen events as components of the living curriculum. By understanding the pillars as pedagogical devices, we reflect on the relationships between space, body, collectivity, and learning, highlighting both their potential and their limits amid institutional tensions. We conclude that the Pilares Project can foster collaborative practices and artistic experimentation through interventions in other educational territories.
