Resumen
The STEAM initiatives promote the idea that art is a fundamental element in education and humanexpression. We study the possibility that a group of students from an educational center may be able to implement an artistic installation. We also study whether the installation could be aligned with educational policiesthat foster STEAM ideas and practices. Furthermore, we analyze whether these activities can be carried outcollaboratively by students using public spaces designated by university administrators. To address these issues, we organized an artistic installation project at the School of Education of Bilbao, Spain. The installationwas carried out by 63 sophomore students. The result of this project is the artwork entitled Glass Drawing 2021Havana. The installation was created in a study hall with a large glass wall adjacent to the main entry of theschool building. The dimensions of the work are 1830 cm by 238 cm, and it uses the technique of translucentvinyl on glass. The artwork Glass Drawing 2021 Havana shows that the students of an educational center cancreate a collaboratively STEAM art installation using the existing public spaces of the university.
