Open-access Interactions and conversations during family visits to the exhibition “Ciencia del Amor y del Perdón”, at Maloka, in Bogota, Colombia

Abstract

This article analyzes the interactions and conversations of ten families visiting the exhibition “The science of love and forgiveness”, at Maloka, in Bogotá, Colombia, which explores emotions from a neuroscientific and human sciences perspective, as well as psychological approaches to forgiveness in a post-conflict context, namely, since the peace agreement between the government and Colombia’s largest guerrilla group. Family visits in December 2022 were recorded using GoPro cameras attached to the chest of a child from each group. The data were analyzed using Dedoose software. The mediation of adults and the exhibition design were found to foster physical and mental interaction.
