Inhalte	This course will be carried out as a dialogue between the theoretical seminar and the practical exercises that highlight the convictions of each student, according to their formats and expressive means. It is conceived as a dynamic of constant questioning with the objective of creating a personal symbolic myth: understood as the clarification of an accurate, intimate and personal image of himself in his reality, from which its entire creative process is defined. The workshop aims for each one to unveil their personal myth, but it is not a linear exercise that sets out to obtain definite results, rather it is conceived as a spiral that develops inwards and each student will deepen their own story to the extent, in which s/he advances in the questioning of his own convictions. The course syllabus is as follows: Presentation / Why art? / Located in the Euro-Western aesthetic Introduction to doubt and the skeptical method Circumstance and individual / Cultural panoramas Anecdote and character / The Art of Storytelling Historical baggage and today / Cultural multiplicity - Multi-temporality The reason for myth The value of the metaphor / layer cake Individual and Circumstance Symbolic attributes in our intimacy Me, mirror of reality? Echoes of Nature In search of the essential emotion The masterpiece Martín Soto Climent (1977, Mexico City) lives and works in Tepoztlan. Master’s degree on Visual Arts at the Academia de San Carlos, UNAM. Together with curator Chris Sharp Founded the independent project space Lulu in Mexico City in 2013.
