Grupo de Estudio IAP
In this session, the IAP Study Group, in collaboration with the Transmedia HistoryTelling project, will discuss the work of Colectivo LECHE (Laboratorio de Estudios Culturales, Históricos y Espaciales), represented by the Colombian scholars Paula Pino López and Javier Peña-Ortega.
The LECHE group has been noted for its commitment to anti-racist, inclusive, and equitable projects. In particular, the exhibitors will focus on explaining their participation in the "Museum + School" project, an initiative that transforms classrooms into spaces for exploration and creation in Colombia. In this project, artists, together with teachers and students, use artistic languages - in this case, comics - to reflect on the memories and realities of their communities.
Paula Pino López, anthropologist and Master in Latin American Cultural Studies, and Javier Peña-Ortega, cartographer and ethnohistorian, will share their experiences and perspectives on the intersection between collaborative comics and social transformation. The talk promises to be an enriching exploration of how social science research, the arts, and activism merge to create an impact in communities.
