Dimensions, And Contexts.
PhD thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
The concept of "space" has gained widespread usage across many academic
disciplines, including sociology, architecture, philosophy, mathematics, and the arts.
Within pictorial art, the term "space" is commonly employed as a lens to comprehend
various artistic concepts and individual works of art. Additionally, numerous artists utilise
space as a subject matter in their artistic practice, creating unique artworks and contributing
to advancing spatial themes and formulations in painting, either directly or indirectly. This
study focuses mainly on overlapped space and its theoretical examination, leading to the
creation of practical works. Specifically, this study reinforced and fulfilled the researcher's
concepts by utilizing Edward Soja's theory of the 'Third Space'. In the process of the study,
three separate series of artworks were gradually produced by Derrida's core concept of
"Différance", which are the overlap of images, the overlap of different dimensional spaces,
and the overlap of contexts respectively, the overall process will five steps, which are
Identify research question, Review the literature and the practice, Design and conduct
practice, Analyse and evaluate practice and Communicate and Disseminate Practice
respectively, so that the various possibilities of overlapped space are analysed from
multiple perspectives, that is, different disciplines.
