Installation Art
Installation art is a modern
movement characterized by
immersive, larger- than-life works of
art. Usually, installation artists
create these pieces for specific
locations, enabling them to expertly
transform any space into a
customized, interactive environment.
Characteristics of
Installation Art
Mixed Media

Contemporary artists usually create art installations in


mixed media. Artworks might involve painting and
sculpture, as well as text, music, and light. Video and
audio components often serve as supplementary
materials to interact with viewers.
Sensory Experience

The installation allows the spectator to enter,


move around, touch, and smell the medium.
Thus, it engages several senses of a human,
making them immerse in the artwork
completely.
Temporality

Installation art is almost always designed


for a temporary period and is described
by its duration rather than the typical
measurements of height, length, and
width.
Site-specificity

An art installation is all about the process


of placing something in a space, which
implies that it has a direct relationship
with that space. This quality makes
installation a truly unique form of art.
Example of
Installation Art
This installation by Yuri Suzuki at the
Color Factory in Chicago immerses
visitors in a tunnel of color and sound.
Colorful horns respond to people’s
movements by singing. The exhibit
encourages social engagement among
guests as the number of horns playing
increases as more visitors enter the
Exploring the sensation of
space. With ever-changing conditions no sound: Bright Noise
two sensory experiences are the same.
Example of
Installation Art
The cry of the dead whale by Biboy Royong. Biboy
Royong was the executive creative director at
dentsu creative Philippines Royong completed his
education at the Philippine High School for the
Arts. Biboy Royong revealed his latest work of art,
a 78-foot-long whale sculpture made entirely of
plastics recovered from the ocean. Royong built
the sculpture using materials such as single-use
grocery bags, water bottles, cups, straws, cutlery,
and ghost fishing gear. Royong named this piece
“the Cry of the Dead Whale,” which he installed in
“The Cry of the Dead
front of the Cultural Center of the Philippines in

impact of human plastic consumption.
