Abstract
The book presents a rich theoretical and legal exposition of the aspects that circumscribe early motherhood during adolescence in the context of institutional care and highlights, based on the literature, the importance of artistic activities in the pedagogical projects developed in NGOs working with minors at risk.
Through the intervention of the artist-researcher, the place of the investigation was the ceramic workshop, focused on the materiality of clay and on this traditional language of the Visual Arts. It took place in a reception unit for minors (under a judicial protection measure) maintained by a Catholic NGO in Paraíba (Brazil). From listening and playing with the clay (the CERAMICAR), he analyzed the verbal expressions (also the silences) and the plastic (artistic) expressions of three protected adolescent mothers.
Mixing different epistemological fields ? the conceptions of creativity proposed by Donald Winnicott (Psychoanalysis, the maturation process), and by Fayga Ostrower (Art, the artistic process), associated with the collected data, Rosilda Sá answered the following questions:
1. What contents do adolescent mothers express, considering the context of institutional reception in which they live?
2. What does each one do with the clay that can express an artistic creation and favor the creation of the self?
3. Could an intervention through listening and playing with clay work as a ?potential space? and help the subjects start their lives when they live the simultaneous context of adolescence and motherhood?
