Abstract

By using the feminist imaginary as a pedagogical tool for resistance and change, an experience of activism
within the university context in Naples, Italy is explored. The article focuses on the potential transformative
power of art as catalysis for deeper level emotional and spiritual learning transformation. The aim is trying to
inspire critical conversations to rethink spaces and practices that allow community care, and conditions that
include authenticity, resonance, reflection, and freedom. Engaging in the arts, aesthetics, and creative practices
can contribute to a sense of hope, agency, and possibility with the potential to provide avenues for creative
expression and innovation. Sharing narratives of possibility and engagement with the arts can promote
community connections. This article highlights the way artistic practices contributed to the creation of a dynamic
and inclusive creative landscape that challenges established norms while encouraging creative and critical
thinking.
