LA HERVIDERA
Educational experimentation laboratory that investigates forms of knowledge through the arts. Producing workshops and educational projects for different audiences, they produce pedagogical materials and furniture, as well as consultancies for schools and development of training programs for trainers.
The group considers education as a cultural production of strong political action and is inspired by disruptive pedagogy, the Montessori school, the Waldorf system and Reggio Emilia philosophy. It links theories of neuro-education, sensory integration and play, to give rise to different ways of looking and constructing meanings. It promotes independent and socialization processes where spontaneity, trial, error and testing are part of learning and the appropriation of knowledge.
They are made up of an artist specialized on the body, a musician, three visual artists and a cultural manager.
The Hervidera members are: Alina Maldonado, Aisel Wicab, Ana G. Zambrano, Cristina Medellín and Idalid Castillo.

The main objective of the 6 sessions was to create playful environments for girls and boys to experience critical, creative and reflective processes. Offering them a space that will facilitate the integration of the group through play and artistic experimentation.
In each session, La Hervidera proposed a different space / setting in which they used drawing as a means of exploration, expanding the practical notion through the use of the body, sound and visual language, as well as recording possibilities.
