In this study, the #MeToo movement, which has turned into a feminist-activist social media movement and the works of the artists who tweet #MeToo and the artistic productions came out just after these tweets are studied. In the research, the reactions and coping attitudes of the artists who have been subjected to sexual assault and/or rape, were examined based on the analysis of their works. Feminist artists have always been important figures in social movements, therefore, this study handled the subject matter while offerin detailed analysis on the works of artists mentioned in the feminist art and literatüre. In this purpose, the main aim of this work is to fill the theoretical gap in the field and draw attentions to the artistic discourse and actions produced by these artists who are exposed and reflect this attack.

Özet

Hızlı etkileşimi sağlayan ve birçok kamusallıktan oluşan sosyal medya platformları insanları bir takım aksiyon alanlarına da yönlendirmektedir. Bu yönüyle sosyal medya, salt bir özgürlük alanı olmaktan çok toplumsal farkındalık eylemleri üreten bir alan olarak da meşrulaşmaktadır. Sosyal medya aracılığıyla tüm dünyada geniş kitlesel tepkilerin verildiği önemli toplumsal sorunlar arasında yer alan kadına yönelik cinsel ve fiziksel şiddet halen başı çekmektedir. Bu çalışmada feminst-aktivist bir sosyal medya hareketine dönüşen #MeToo hareketinden yola çıkılmış, #MeToo tweeti atan sanatçıların yapıtlarına ve bu tweetler sonrasındaki sanatsal üretimlere odaklanılmıştır. Araştırmada cinsel saldırı ve/veya tecavüze uğrayan, tanıklık eden ya da tepki veren sanatçıların çalışmalarından hareketle, yaşanılan olaylara verdikleri tepkiler ve başa çıkma tutumları irdelenmiştir. Feminist sanatçılar toplumsal hareketlerde her dönem önemli figürler olmuşlardır. Araştırma, feminist sanat literatüründe anılan sanatçıların kapsamını genişletirken aynı zamanda saldırıya maruz kalan ve bunu yansıtan sanatçıların sanatsal söylem ve eylemlerinin irdelendiği bir kaynak olarak alandaki teorik boşluğu doldurma gerekliliğinden hareketle ele alınmıştır.
