Artematics: Fruit of the genealogical tree of the García – Hernández and Coronel – Castillo families

Abstract

From childhood, we've heard that the family is the foundation of society, and after the recent pandemic, we understood this perfectly. The family was the only institution that remained operational, fulfilling its own objectives and those of other institutions like churches, hospitals, and educational centers. This article proposes a theory on cultural inheritance through the narratives or life stories of the author's family members. To achieve this, a genealogical tree was constructed to uncover beliefs, traditions, and professions. Systems Theory was used as the macro theory. This research was guided by the tenets of the Post-Positivist Interpretive Paradigm, and field inquiry involved interviews with six family members. The triangulation process highlighted points of convergence between Art and Mathematics, leading to the formation of ARTHEMATICS.
