Mein Anderes Ich – Mi otro Yo (2008)
Mi otro yo.
Tema: Identidad.
8.º grado de la escuela Ana Siemsen, Berlín Neukölln.
Duración: semana de proyectos. Enero de 2008.
Justificación/objetivos: muchos residentes del barrio de Neukölln, en Berlín, un lugar habitado por un gran porcentaje de turcos y árabes con pocas perspectivas de superación, ponen gran énfasis en su apariencia física y en las posesiones materiales. Por lo tanto, el objetivo principal de la estrategia fue hacerles ver a los jóvenes la diferencia entre su ser (individualidad) y su apariencia física. De este modo, podrían reconocer el potencial de su ser y diferenciar entre su individualidad y su apariencia física. Esto reforzaría su identidad y la confianza de muchos de los jóvenes.
Dibujar su autorretrato les ayudaría a indagar en su individualidad, ya que el dibujo es la herramienta que me permitiría llegar a cumplir los objetivos.
¿Qué dice mi ropa sobre mí?; ¿Qué ropa me gusta y por qué?; ¿Cómo me ven los demás y cómo no quiero verme en absoluto?».; ¿En qué ropa me siento a gusto y por qué?; ¿Qué me hace diferente y único?
Los trabajos de los alumnos se presentaron en la exposición.

My other self.
Topic: Identity.
8th grade at Ana Siemsen School, Berlin Neukölln.
Duration: Project week. January 2008.
Rationale/objectives: Many residents of the Neukölln neighborhood in Berlin, an area inhabited by a large percentage of Turks and Arabs with few prospects for advancement, place great emphasis on their physical appearance and material possessions. Therefore, the main objective of the strategy was to make young people see the difference between their being (individuality) and their physical appearance. In this way, they could recognize their potential and differentiate between their individuality and their physical appearance. This would strengthen the identity and confidence of many of the young people.
Drawing their self-portrait would help them explore their individuality, as drawing is the tool that would allow me to achieve the objectives.
What do my clothes say about me? What clothes do I like and why? How do others see me and how do I not want to be seen at all? What clothes do I feel comfortable in and why? What makes me different and unique?
The students‘ work was presented at the exhibition.
