The initiative not art centers visited, it is the institution itself which becomes a space of thought, research and development through various activities led by renowned artists such as Bernabeu ".
For more than eight months, the photographer has visited the center Murcia repeatedly participating in classes, meetings of teachers, parents, and so on.
Similarly, the faculty has participated very actively in the project, and especially highlighted the collaboration of Mabel Martinez, professor of visual arts center.
Under the title 'Panorama asset' Bernabeu wanted to reflect on the freedom of expression of students and this project aims to analyze the internal structures and the relationships between students, teachers, the management team of the centers, parents and administration.
Photographs and interviews
The project began last year with the completion of 500 questionnaires to students, teachers and parents.
The questions, which were answered anonymously, were focused on the relationships within the education system, the expectations of each group on education and school and dreams of future participants.
Regarding the photo documentation, he proposed to the Bernabeu school students participate in two facilities.
In the first, he entitled 'Panorama Active Slate', participants who, individually and anonymously write on the board what they wanted and then perform a requested photograph.
In the second, 'Panorama Active Self', were asked to, again individually and anonymously, use a paper bag to write, draw and interpret your own face again before the camera.
The aim of the creator in these two facilities was to collect images about what they think and how they see themselves and, over three weeks, more than 400 photographs were made.
All the material gathered during the project, both photographic and video and questionnaires were used to mount an exhibition that occupies the entrance of the school and that puts an end to the project at the Institute of Secondary Education (IES) Cabezo de Torres.
