Paris doğumlu Paul Gauguin resimsel arayışları için çıktığı yolculukta uygar dünyaya ait tüm sorumluluklarını geride bırakarak Güney Pasifik’in yerlileri arasında yaşamıştır. Resimlerinin ana konusu, tercih ettiği yeni yaşam tarzının tasviridir ve bu tasvirler sanatçının sembolik anlatımıyla birlikte doğa-insan uyumunu öne çıkarırken sanatçının ilkel yaşayışla şekillenen duygularının da yansımasıdır. Bu araştırmada analizi yapılan “Nereden Geliyoruz? Neyiz? Nereye Gidiyoruz?” isimli eser sembolik anlatımıyla insanın yeryüzündeki konumunu, doğasını ve bu ikisi arasındaki çelişkileri anlatmaktadır. Bu anlatım esnasında uygar ve ilkel dünyaya yapılan göndermelerin ortaya çıkarılması ve eserin isminde yer alan sorulardan yola çıkarak Gauguin’in dünyaya bakışının gözler önüne serilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda literatür taraması yapılarak sanatçı ve eser hakkında bilgiler toplanmış, bu bilgiler ışığında resimde kullanılan öğelere yüklenen sembolik anlamlar çözümlenerek eserin bütünde verdiği mesaj ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Bu mesaj; sanatçının dünyaya bakışının bir yansıması, ilkel yaşayışa ait iddialı söylemiyle de bir yaşam felsefesinin ilanıdır.
Paul Gauguin was born in Paris and during the journey that he set on for his pictorial quests; he left behind all his responsibilities in the civilized world and lived among the natives of South Pacific. The main subject of his pictures is the description of his newly preferred lifestyle and while these descriptions bring the harmony between humans and nature to the forefront by a symbolic portrayal of the artist, they also represent a reflection of the artist’s emotions that were shaped by a primitive life. The work named "Where Do We Come From?, What Are We?, Where Are We Going", which we analyze in this research, portrays the status and nature of humans on the globe and the discrepancies between them with a symbolic language. This portrayal aims to discover the attributes made to the civilized and primitive world and portray Gauguin's view of the world by relying on the questions included in the title of his Work. Information about the artist have been collected for this purpose by making a literature review, the symbolic meanings attributed to the objects, which were used in the pictures, were analyzed in the light of this information and the message given by the Work's entirety has been revealed. This message is a reflection of the artist’s view of the world and the declaration of his life philosophy through his assertive discourse about primitive life.
