Abstract

The current state of the world climate requires creative experience environments that include effective suggestions for the environment that can be practically implemented. Current experience environments need to change due to new working paradigms. The language created to understand how people relate to nature as a society, how their personal beliefs and behaviors are affected, and how their actions are affected, indicates rational decision-making processes. The question of how to contribute meaningfully to global goals can be answered by creating environments that support sustainable, creative, and critical thinking in the environments where children and adults will spend time. Eco play environments, as creative areas that combine environmental sustainability and artistic expression, show that they can be a process of environmental improvement and solutions to future concerns. In this context, from an artistic perspective, eco play environments attract attention with designs that emphasize the aesthetics of nature and ecological balance. These areas allow artists to convey environmental messages through their actions. This study allows for socio-cultural definitions regarding the process of producing sculptures in eco-play environments that question the nature and definition of art and design in the social awareness interaction of individuals through different artist practices and expand the possibilities of expression of sculpture as a new way of telling art.
