Abstract
In this paper, we present an educational project for Primary School based on the lightpainting technique. School children aged 10–11 were introduced to this technique and recorded in photographs the motions and geometric shapes made with the multi-colored luminous objects. Through this medium, we allowed students to experience and play with simple geometric ideas through bodily motion and photography, while addressing Spanish curriculum requirements (Art and Mathematic sections).
