| dc.description.abstract | This visual essay explores the intersections of contemporary art, relational aesthetics and therapeutic potential through an analysis of Hale Tenger’s Appearance (2019), a mixed-media and sound installation created for the 16th Istanbul Biennial. The work integrates volcanic obsidian mirrors and a poetic soundscape to evoke themes of introspection, agency and humanity’s relationship with nature. While not explicitly framed within art therapy, Appearance exemplifies relational perspectives that resonate with therapeutic principles, fostering emotional engagement and ecological awareness. Tenger’s work invites reflection on interconnectedness and healing, offering a model for how contemporary art can facilitate transformative experiences. This visual essay argues that Appearance provides a valuable lens for understanding the potential of art to create safe, reflective spaces, contributing to broader dialogues on the intersections of applied arts, health and environmental consciousness. © 2025 Intellect Ltd. | en_US |
