Özet

Installation Art, which is a result of industrial developments, has been discovered depending on the fiction that objects are placed in the space and experienced by the viewer. The main purpose of the installation is to emphasize space fiction to comprehend the message that the artist wants to give. In this study, the Qur’an Installation Project, which has an important place in the Islamic World, was analyzed in the concept of Surah Al-Alaq, the first surah that was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (s.a.v), descending from the heavens and pouring into the pages of the book. This artwork, which is applied for the first time in the ethnography museums in Turkiye, is discussed by explaining all the stages from design to installation. In the first part of the study, information about the art of installation consisting of space, material and observer components is given. In the field study, information about how these components were adapted to the Qur’an Installation was given and the design, manufacturing and implementation stages of the project were explained. The data collection analysis method, which is a qualitative analysis method, was used in the study. As a result of the analyses, it was determined that there were some differences between design and implementation. In conclusion; installation is a branch of art that changes depending on technological developments and has an application system depending on the requirements of the space. However, the success of this art technique will be possible with the architect's participation in the application model as well as determining the design criteria.
