Installation vs Photography

Our tutor has asked a few times what is the photographic connection to our installations. This question is hard to answer as installations are photographic as they are visionary. Artists around the world are installing pieces of art as a representative of sight, emotions, smell and even taste. Installations bring architecture, history and landscapes alive in a different way to photography however they are intrinsically linked. Installations is an art form and so is photography. We take images of what there is no matter how experimental. Installations are what artists make with the inspiration of the landscape, architecture and space.
