Abstract:
The creation of habitable, appropriable and functional spaces inside architecture, is done based on the ideas, memories, cultural and historical knowledge, conceptual solutions, use of referents, new technologies, innovative processes and the acknowledge and cultural proposition of procedures, methodologies, techniques and concepts of each space and community. This creation route involves the common and sometimes idyllic conversation and negotiation between architects, owners, promoters and possible users.

Nevertheless, this creative process does not mainly involve any attached artistic procedures (not typical of the architectural, academic and professional environment), such us oral, written and represented narration, which is mediated by archive, memory, appropriation and spatial imagination.

With the objective of evincing the lessons learned, the problematics, inconvenients, solution possibilities and conclusions obtained as a student and professional architect in the development of the FMW (Final Master’s Work) titled “The enigma of the flexible spatiality. Sketch of a body in construction”, of the MAEDAR (Master of Artistic Education) in UNAL (Universidad Nacional de Colombia), the pedagogical and methodological qualities of narrative are stated in the architectural, academic, professional, educative, social and communal environment.

For this purpose, the stagings done in the development of the FMW are taken as case studies. These were characterized by possessing a structure that involved the narrative as the principal axis in the spatial creation, acting as the object that conforms it and weaves sense, in conjunction with memory, space, remembrance, archive (owned, shared and alien), and the identities and spatial and human imaginaries. Through oral, written and represented narrative, different spaces are created, with diverse characteristics and access, approach and appropriation levels, allowing the attendant (understood and characterized as listener, participant, student, user and human being) to imagine and make them both creatively and bodily tangible.
