RESUMO

The aim of this work is to disclose the aesthetic question in non formal social environments. Doing so, I will be given aesthetic a facilitative character that can help us understand and interpret the past and present moment, as well as ourselves through a process of self-reflection. In order to analyze the question mentioned above, I have worked, as a starting point with teenagers aged between 11 and 16, currently enrolled in a formal school, who before or after their regular classes join a non-formal education group. I have asked them to take pictures of what they considered beautiful in their homes and their everyday lives. It is not about finding a vague unreachable beauty; it is about finding it in their lives. What was found in the life of these teenagers called our attention. I was able to observe, through the images grasped by the camera, that to these adolescents, the concept of beauty is attached to their daily routine, as well as to social memories. There is always a sentimental reference of beauty related to themselves, other members of the family and useful objects. So, they bring backyards, living rooms, kitchen cupboards, walls, plants in vases, real and artificial flowers, dogs, cats, pigs, birbs, televisions, computers, small cans, lunettes, the bible, books, trees, desires, memories, feelings of safety, anyway, a world called home and the window view outside. The fine-arts are able to build this thoughtful critical eye, work with all those who interact with them, in a path of learning, criticism and contemplation
