Abstract

Visual languages are essential in the current learning. For themselves promote the development of personal autonomy and the pursuit of uniqueness and individuality. The scope of photographic language, is a perfect space for display and production of self-expressions of identity, especially in adolescence. We will describe in this article a classroom experience of self-expression, search and discovery of the body through photography students from 3th Secondary Education. This classroom activity has attempted to reflect on the relationship between the art of photographic portraiture and selfexpression.
