| dc.description.abstract | Examining the different aspects of artistic expression and aesthetic outcome, this thesis will work with and through the artwork Take My Breath Away. Introducing ways of facilitating lasting experiences in audiences at art exhibitions, and -events, and as an auxiliary, to help alleviate the pressure artists, as a byproduct of tradition, will put on themselves. Through proposing a percept of altering the atmospheric composition to that of an altitude of 2000 meters above sea level, considering the merits of this fabrication in relation to the research question: What constitutes artistic and aesthetic experiences, and what agencies are present in them? Concluding that the result of the proposed percept is not adding weight to this question. Furthermore, the thesis examines the possibilities of the audience’s agency within the work and exhibition to challenge an a-contextual understanding of art – and proposes an aesthetic strategy that utilizes the surroundings as way to inform the presentation. | |
