Transforming the visible world of nature / JOMO. FOMO. YOLO.

Krajina predstavlja osrednji pojem, na podlagi katerega sem raziskovala odnos med človekom in naravo v tehnološko rapidno napredujoči sodobni družbi ter vpliv tega odnosa na motiv krajine v sodobnem slikarstvu. Najprej definiram pojem narave in njen odnos z umetnostjo. Nadaljujem z razlago širokega pomena krajine in jo skozi upodobitve narave umestim v zgodovinski kontekst. Nadalje opredelim razvoj zahodnega krajinskega slikarstva skozi različna zgodovinska obdobja, s poudarkom na upodabljanju krajine danes, ko vsak umetnik na svoj način demonstrira, kaj vse je lahko pokrajina. Spoznanju, da je naše doživljanje na naravo zapleteno, sledi poglavje o estetskem vrednotenju narave, nakar ta odnos še definiram skozi pojem ruševine. Zaključim s predstavitvijo analize svojega umetniškega ustvarjanja v sklopu serije slik JOMO. FOMO. YOLO! in ugotavljam, kako v sodobnem času interpretirati ta stoletja razvijajoči se motiv krajine.Landscape painting delineates the central concept through which I delved into the relationship between people and nature within our society, marked by rapid technological advancement, and the influence of the said rapport on the landscape motif in the field of contemporary painting. Commencing this thesis by defining the concept of nature and its relation to art, I then elaborate on the broad significance of a landscape and historically contextualise it through its rendering of nature. Further, I characterise the development of western landscape painting throughout its various historical periods and emphasise contemporary landscape depictions, presenting how artists express their individualities by demonstrating their unique interpretations of the breadth of the landscape concept. An acknowledgment of the complexity of human perception of the environment is followed by a chapter on its aesthetic appraisal and the definition of this correlation through the concept of an anthropogenic derelict. In the conclusion, I analyse my artistic production within the JOMO. FOMO. YOLO! series of paintings and ascertain a contemporaneous interpretation of landscape, a motif that has sustained centuries of development
