Abstract:

The immersion, presence and interaction features of Virtual Reality provide artists with unique possibilities and inspire them to discover new methods and interpretation styles. Artists play an important role for the exploration, development and evolution of the potential of Virtual Reality as a developing field. Artists may consider VR in a more conceptual environment and expand towards an intellectual context. In addition, VR also offers unique possibilities to develop new discourses, methods and forms of expression for the artwork. VR may provide new ways of perception, examination, and interpretation for the artists. The use of writing both within a linguistic context and as a visual expression within the scope of conceptual art has brought new perspectives for the art. If VR is included in the combination of writing and art, there may be completely different results for the conceptual and intellectual context. The intersection of writing, art and VR has a rich potential for different perspectives and new patterns. In this study, the use of writing as the main narrative element in VR Artworks has been discussed as an experimental typography study. Experimental typography is a practice based on exploration, seeking new forms of visual expression apart from traditional patterns. It attempts to find an original language. In this regard, VR Artworks based on experimental typography may reveal various contents that explore the role of language for art as structured images in virtual environment. In addition, it can expand the narrative language of VR by providing results that are different from the visualization approaches commonly used in VR experiences.
