Abstract

It is a collaborative photo-essay of a pedagogical artistic experience in the period of Covid 19 Spain confinement.

The objectives coincide with the general ones of Spanish Early Childhood Education Law and contribute to developing important skills in the teachers training.

The creative and artistic project allows connecting with spirituality like the essence of the human being. It is an approach to the  imperfect beauty, the incomplete, the changing, it reveals the value of what is modest and humble so important in education. 

The result respond to the starting questions: Can you teach to look? How do you learn to look? In other cultures, do you look the same way? How do you look at it in childhood? What and how do you learn? The experience highlights active learning, the value of error, sensitivity, beauty, acceptance of the imperfect, the path as a goal in the construction of learning and life for happiness. You only teach what you are. You only learn what you live.
