Abstract
Formation of Art Work in the Context of Image, Imaging and Imaging Concepts
It is known that artistic creations exist with man. It has been observed that these
creations have triggered creative processes and have offered them new perspectives
which allowed them to have the ability to exist as new artistic creations on their own.
One of the most important things that emphasizes an artist’s place and importance in a
society is the fact that the development of the creational phenomena that is attached to
the artist has influences on numerous other fields. From this point on, due to the scope
of our research, the creation of artwork formed in the context of imagery, imaging and
imagining within the periodic processes, the variable attributes of imagery and artwork
based on imagery were mentioned. The concepts of imaging and imagining based on the
imagery and the imagery’s role was mentioned to emphasize the importance of the work.
Descriptive method was used in this study. Concepts related to the subject; qualitative
data were evaluated and the factors and causality of an art work in the formation
processes of an art work were examined by adhering to the concepts of imagery, imagery
and imagery. The purpose of this work is to observe the images used in the works of
art, ones that reflect which periods it has been through and according to this, reflect
events and phenomena based on the certain societal activities at the time. This reflection
allows us to understand the imagery’s purpose and the creational processes it offers to
the artist. During the creation of an artwork, the variables in the societal fundamentals
and differences between cultures, which reflects a civilization’s socio-cultural attributes,
also prepares a ground for the reflection of daily rituals specific to these societies. The
imagery and the concepts bound to it; indicator, symbol, theme and subject, which carry
the attributes of the societies of the past form a unity and play a crucial role which
reflects certain differences belonging to these societies. Imagery, imaging and imagining
concepts were examined to understand their place in the artwork under this subject.
