THE TEMPORAL DIMENSION IN PLASTIC ARTS

DAYANAND BASVANAPPA PATNE & DHANANJAY TAKALIKAR

ABSTRACT

While traditionally considered spatial, the plastic arts possess a profound and complex relationship with time. This paper investigates "Plastic Time," a concept wherein visual art transcends the "frozen moment" to incorporate duration, memory, and decay. Through analysis of artistic practices from traditional portraiture to modern kinetic sculpture and environmental art this paper demonstrates that time is not merely an external factor but an active, integral component of visual, plastic expression. 

Key Words: Plastic Time, frozen moment, plastic expression
