Sumario:[EN] The use of community art as a methodological tool, alongside the associative network of the Horta Sud region (València), allows for the exploration of its potential as a means of political incidence. In collaboration with the Fundació Horta Sud, a participatory artistic process is implemented as part of a Feminist Action-Research methodology, aimed at promoting an ecosocial transformation through the construction of a shared vision of futures. Throughout this process, community art manifests not only as a tool for creative expression but also as a catalyst for ecosocial change, capable of addressing the various crises stemming from the dominant socioeconomic and cultural model. By integrating artistic practices into the everyday life of the associative network, new, more accessible models of participation are incorporated, stimulating critical reflection and collective action. This, in turn, enhances political incidence capacity and enables the projection of future challenges from a reparative approach.
