Figures 14 and 15. After exploring the maps created by young people in the USA and Kosovo, students start creating their own collaborative body maps. Body maps as a form of art and narrative therapy are used to gain understanding of self and the world; they are simultaneous engagement with/between the internal and external worlds. Choosing paper fragments, symbols, colors, and textures, students translate ideas, experiences, hopes and feelings into visual imagery, this project invites students to engage with ‘the self’ creatively.
