Turrell's works are often large-scale, immersive environments that manipulate light, space, and color to create profound, contemplative experiences. One of his most ambitious projects is the Roden Crater, a monumental land art installation in an extinct volcanic crater in Arizona, designed to engage viewers with the celestial and earthly interplay of light.

« I like to use light as a material, but my medium is actually perception. I want you to sense yourself sensing - to see yourself seeing. »

What is site specific art?

Site-Specific Art is a form of artwork created to exist in a particular location, with the artist considering the site as an integral part of the creative process. Robert Irwin was a key figure in promoting this art form in California. Site-Specific Art emerged as a reaction against modernist objects, which were often portable, commodified, and confined to museum spaces. In contrast, Site-Specific Art is inherently tied to its location, challenging the traditional notions of art as a transportable and marketable commodity.
