Abstract
In continuation of Paulo Freire’s work, taken as an emancipatory pedagogy, this work proposes to develop an aesthetic perspective for critical pedagogy. To this end, it relies on a didactic-creation, derived from the notion of research-creation, which proposes an articulation between investigations in the field of social sciences and the artistic dimension. Considering that, within a capitalist society, art and the aesthetics were also instrumentalized by capital, the text criticizes the adoption of the aesthetic dimension in a purely technical perspective, claiming an ethical action as one that can deal with such reality. Through a theoretical dimension, this study presents the didactics-creation and its practical uses in a critical pedagogy, introducing digital collages to illustrate the issues addressed.
