Description
Summary:Artists express their past experiences through art practices and carry the personal and period dynamics of the past to the present through materials. Using of materials and the narrative potential and relationality of contemporary art practices provide spatial experiences. These practices bring past experiences to the present and allow viewers to re-experience. This study aims to examine the way a past experience is transferred to the present and how it is transformed into a field of representation in the practices of Michael Landy, Anny and Sibel Öztürk, Hale Tenger and İlya Kabakov. In the study, the relationship between memory and space and the relational effect of the installation were examined using qualitative research methods. The results showed that past experiences could not be transferred to the present as they were and that they created relational representation space that was reconstructed under today’s conditions.
