a form of modern art that consists of mixed-media assemblages, designed for a specific place and time period

Installation art is a type of artwork created to change or improve a specific space. Unlike traditional art, which is usually displayed in a frame or on a stand, installation art can involve arranging objects, using different materials, including light, sound, and other elements, or changing the environment in a room. The aim is to create a unique experience for viewers, making them feel like they are part of the artwork itself. For example, an artwork might fill a room with a special arrangement of objects and sounds to create a particular mood or message.
