A Study on the Artistic Response to the Ecological Crisis: The Case of Pinar Yoldas’ Interdisciplinary Work

This paper examines how artistic responses can be formulated in the face of ecological crisis, focusing on the case of Pinar Yoldas’ interdisciplinary works. Yoldas’ works create an artistic experience of the daunting ecological problems chafing the modern world through the adoption of non-artistic media that invariably involve scientific and technological components. Her work serves as a visual stimulant to bring about the changes in human perceptions and behavior toward those ecological problems. The process is facilitated by the media-enabled expansion of senses and experiences rather than by the media’s novelty. Yoldas aligns her work with non-judgmental criticisms on human behavior that has persistently contributed to the ecological crisis since the industrialization. She then forms an artistic response by fully embracing the technology that is regarded as the very cause of the ecological problems. The incorporation of scientific and technological media components makes it possible to present the post-human evolutionary capacity of the nature while breaking away from the eco-nihilistic or moralistic traps into which many artists tend to fall when dealing with ecological issues. The potential of Yoldas’ interdisciplinary works in advancing the solidarity between humans and nature for the resolution of the ecological crisis is assessed.
