Description

Sculpture, being known since prehistory, has a long time of development and use from the artisanal and monumental side. As such, sculpture has gone through different periods of artistic expression and different styles and different societies. In the context of contemporary society and the transformations of the last century, sculpture, like many other activities, is naturally tested with the difficulty of being present in the cultural market and keeping up with artistic trends. Consequently, sculpture, in its development to be present in contemporary trends, has expanded the language of communication through the use of different techniques, experimentation with different materials and different two- and three-dimensional forms, concept, naming, use of digital media, color, etc.

In this case, the use of the specific place is one of the forms that help the development of sculpture in contemporary times. In this context, this work presents a "mirror" of the harm we do to nature and consequently to ourselves through pollution, and through the application of the specific place as a starting point for the conception of a sculptural form we achieve better communication, including in in this case also the history of the location.

Reference the two 2022 biennales - the Venice Biennale and the RKS nomadic Manifesta.

The paper focuses on the use of the term site specific sculpture, air drawing and the concept, named "Air Drawings" (public art work) that was realized in 2021-22 (supported by MKRS) and will be installed during 2022 in Prishtina. The paper elaborates the characteristics of the sculpture, the analysis of environmental pollution, and the artistic intervention, based on the history of the specific place, through lines and geometric and organic forms that shape and complete the sculptural work "Site Specific Air Drawing Sculpture".

Keywords:

Sculpture, site specific Sculpture, "Drawings in the Air", public art.

Site Specific Sculpture: application in the work "Drawings in the Air"

Lipjan, Kosovo

Sculpture, being known since prehistory, has a long time of development and use from the artisanal and monumental side. As such, sculpture has gone through different periods of artistic expression and different styles and different societies. In the context of contemporary society and the transformations of the last century, sculpture, like many other activities, is naturally tested with the difficulty of being present in the cultural market and keeping up with artistic trends. Consequently, sculpture, in its development to be present in contemporary trends, has expanded the language of communication through the use of different techniques, experimentation with different materials and different two- and three-dimensional forms, concept, naming, use of digital media, color, etc.

In this case, the use of the specific place is one of the forms that help the development of sculpture in contemporary times. In this context, this work presents a "mirror" of the harm we do to nature and consequently to ourselves through pollution, and through the application of the specific place as a starting point for the conception of a sculptural form we achieve better communication, including in in this case also the history of the location.
