Abstract

Svrha ovog diplomskog rada je istražiti područje art terapije te primjenu elemenata art terapije u likovnim aktivnostima u vrtiću. Likovna umjetnost omogućuje realizaciju kreativnih potencijala djece od najranije dobi te potiče njihov cjelokupni i zdravi razvoj. Art terapija je oblik psihoterapije koji primjenjuje likovni stvaralački proces kao sredstvo izražavanja i komunikacije. Na početku rada su predstavljene temeljene postavke art terapije i njen razvoj kroz povijest, a u nastavku su pobliže objašnjeni modeli za razumijevanje art terapije koji pomažu razumjeti i evaluirati načine korištenja različitih elemenata umjetnosti u terapiji. U sklopu likovne terapije pojašnjena je dječja likovnost, dječji crtež kao dijagnostičko i terapijsko sredstvo te simbolika boja. Za provođenje likovne terapije u odgojno – obrazovnom radu s djecom prikazane su smjernice za njeno provođenje te način na koji se oblikuje odgovarajuće prostorno – materijalno okruženje. Za razvoj dječje kreativnosti i likovnih sposobnosti vrlo je važan utjecaj odgojitelja koji omogućuje bogatstvo raznolikih poticaja i djeci dopušta slobodu, uvažava njihove interese i mogućnosti. Odgojitelji nisu terapeuti, ali mogu pristupati dječjem crtežu u okviru znanja o razvojnim karakteristikama djece i opisati vlastiti dojam. Na kraju rada nalaze se primjeri provedenih likovnih aktivnosti s elementima art terapije, dječji radovi, izjave djece i neka moja zapažanja kao odgojiteljice. Primjena elemenata art terapije u radu s djecom pokazala se vrlo korisnom u poticanju kreativnosti, povećanju koncentracije te interesa za likovne aktivnosti.

Abstract (english)

The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate the field of art therapy and the usage of its methods in art activities in kindergarten. Art enables realization of children's creative potentials from the early age and encourages their overall and healthy development. Art therapy is a form of psychotherapy that utilizes art process as a means of expression and communication. At the beginning of the paper are presented basic settings of art therapy and its brief history. In more details below, models for understanding art therapy which help to understand and evaluate ways of using various elements of art in therapy are explained. Within the framework of art therapy, children's art, children's drawing as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool and color symbolism were explained. For the implementation of art therapy in educational work with children, guidelines for its implementation and the way in which the appropriate environment is shaped are presented. Educators play very important role in development of children’s creativity and artistic abilities that enables a wealth of diverse incentives and allows children freedom, respects their interests and abilities. Teachers are not therapists, but they can access children's drawings within the knowledge od children's developmental characteristics and give their own impression. At the end of the paper are examples of visual art activities with methods of art therapy, children's work, statements and some of my observations as a teacher. The usage of art therapy methods in working with children proved very useful in enhancing creativity, increasing concentration and interest in visual activities.
