Abstract
This thesis tries to discuss the conditions of the relationship between art work and its producer together with the question of ‘outside’ of the artwork. This declaration is to discuss and to think about the artwork after the experience of making the artwork. The thesis is stated in a manner which opens the possibilities to analyze the representing and non-representing approach of the producer/painter during the experiencing process of painting, the act of creating a body. The theoretical usages consist of the attempt to construct a new way of evaluating the human body as an artwork. This wbrk/act of painting developed in the isolated field of the proce.ss of artwork, therefore, tries to objectify the thoughts of the producer within her psycho- logical/physiological approach.
