KURGUSAL HABİTAT MANZARALARI
Özet
In our age, when nature continues to be a source of inspiration for art and science, the perception of nature has been transformed from an interdisciplinary perspective. Unlike the exploratory approach of the Renaissance and the interpretive perspective of modernism, contemporary art practice addresses nature in the context of an existential concern. Rather than a purely aesthetic image of nature, artists focus on making visible the traumatic reality of ecological destruction and updating our severed ties with nature. With their constructions of habitat landscapes, the artists invite people to think about the subject and question the meaning of our connection with nature.
Environmental problems- climate crisis, unconscious production practices, consumer culture and unsustainable technological policies- have become central to artists' critical discourse since the 1990s. Today's artist is positioned as an active subject that contributes to social transformation beyond his/her position as a mere observer. Addressing global environmental problems with an interdisciplinary approach, artists place the potential destruction of nature, which is destroyed as a result of interest-oriented policies, into the social subconscious through artistic practices. This critical approach serves an important function in raising awareness of habitat loss and developing social sensitivity.
The present study emphasizes the importance of reviewing our relationship with nature. This research, which addresses the relationship between art and nature from an interdisciplinary perspective, aims to reveal the critical potential of contemporary art practices in social transformation.
