Course Objective

Cartography as a geography discipline and mapping as a method have various philosophical, theoretical and creative equivalents today. At the same time, cartography and mapping are one of the important resources that contemporary photography strategies benefit from. The aim of the course is to recognize the main theoretical studies on this subject and to recognize and discuss artists' approaches to the subject since the avant-garde period. It is aimed to provide them with a critical perspective within the framework of map methods carried out in psychogeographical, sensory, cognitive and online environments, and to enable them to realize their photo-based subjective designs.
