“Useful natasha’s escape” – multi-sensorial artistic experiences: an emancipating holistic perception of the world

Abstract

An important contribution that art and visual art education owe to new technologies is the possibility to generate and use (didactic) means that base either on dynamic or static images, combining different languages in the effort to communicate and “produce meanings”. In this context, the aim of our artistic research was to analyze the influence of different kinds of expression through an art work that functions as a unity of auditory, visual and verbal experiences. In our opinion one of the most efficient critical attitudes towards the world would be to develop an unconditional tie of the art work with “everyday life conditions” arguing that the possibility to undertake the risk of an eventual incompatibility of beliefs would be grounded on the education of critical ‘perceivers” of the environment as a whole; “perceivers” that could deal with eventual dissonances in a constructive and “emancipating” way.
