Abstract

Through a literature review and field work, this article aims to present some considerations related to children's themes, their perceptions of cities and urban spaces through aesthetic and art training. Based on works carried out in the field of Art, more precisely photography, it addresses issues related to urban spaces, their peculiarities, the possibilities of aesthetic and social experiences and the children's view of what such spaces offer. It presents records of experiences linked to the field of photography, children's perceptions in relation to images and urban spaces, through photographic outings and visits to photography exhibitions. This discussion intends to demonstrate that through Art and aesthetic training it is possible to think of cities and urban spaces as places more susceptible to humanization, of a healthier “inhabitation”, beyond the mere needs of production.
