What is Installation Art?

Installation art is difficult to describe. In principal, it

means taking a large interior (the exterior can be
part of an installation, too) and loading it with
disparate items that evoke complex and multiple
associations and thoughts, longings, and moods.
It's a huge three-dimensional painting, sculpture,
poem, and prose work.

Types Of Installation Art

This visual art form ranges from the very simple to the very complex. An
installation can be gallery based, digital based, electronic based, webbased - the possibilities are limitless and depend entirely upon the artist's
concept and aims. Almost any type of material or media can be utilized in
contemporary installation art, including natural or man-made objects,
painting and sculpture, as well as new media such as video, film,
photography, audio, performance, happenings and computers.
Some compositions are strictly indoor, while others are public art,
constructed in open-air community spaces. Some are mute, while others
are interactive and require audience participation.
Some installations are custom-made for a particular space. Others - such
as the still-life line drawings of clustered objects made from adhesive
tape, by Michael Craig-Martin (b.1941) - can be assembled anywhere.

Features Of Installation Art

Installation artists are more concerned with the presentation

of their message than with the means used to achieve it.
However, unlike 'pure' Conceptual art, which is supposedly
experienced in the minds of those introduced to it,
Installation art is more grounded - it remains tied to a
physical space.
Some compositions are strictly indoor, while others are
public art, constructed in open-air community spaces.
Some are mute, while others are interactive and require
audience participation.

My Interpretation
It's a wooden sculpture-installation made by
combining small-small pieces of wooden
pieces.Basically what i infer from this installation art is
that artist wants to show that just by using small
pieces of any simple thing wonderful can be
made.Like this world is also made up of just
combination of simple things.It only depends on the
way we put those things together,that's it.
