ECOCRITICISM AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMAGERY IN MODERN ART

Abstract

Ecocriticism has emerged as an important interdisciplinary approach that examines the relationship between art, literature, culture, and the environment in the context of ecological awareness and environmental crises. In modern art, environmental imagery has become a significant medium for representing nature, climate change, industrialization, ecological destruction, and human interaction with the natural world. This paper explores the role of ecocriticism and environmental imagery in modern art and analyzes how contemporary artists use visual expression to address environmental concerns and promote ecological consciousness.
