Abstract

This study examines the potential of images produced through the soil chromatography printing method to generate ecological awareness within the context of photographic art. Soil samples collected from nine faculties at Dokuz Eylül University Central Campus were visualized using soil chromatography based on silver nitrate and alkaline solutions. The resulting chromatograms were quantitatively analyzed using Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) texture analysis, employing five textural metrics: Angular Second Moment (ASM), Contrast, Correlation, Inverse Difference Moment (IDM), and Entropy. Following data normalization, K-means and hierarchical clustering methods were applied to classify the images. The analyses revealed that the chromatograms were grouped into two main categories along the axes of regularity and complexity, with ASM, Entropy, and Contrast metrics playing a discriminative role in this separation. The findings indicate that soil chromatography prints provide a framework for the visual articulation of ecological processes within photographic art through a texture-based analytical approach.

Özet

Bu çalışma, toprak kromatografisi baskı yöntemi ile elde edilen görsellerin fotoğraf sanatı bağlamında ekolojik farkındalık üretme potansiyelini incelemektedir. Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Merkez Kampüsü’ndeki dokuz fakülteden alınan toprak örnekleri, gümüş nitrat ve alkali çözelti kullanılarak toprak kromatografisi (soil chromatography) baskılarına dönüştürülmüştür. Elde edilen görseller, GLCM analizi ile beş dokusal metrik (ASM, Contrast, Correlation, IDM, Entropy) üzerinden değerlendirilmiştir. Normalizasyon sonrası veriler, K-means ve hiyerarşik kümeleme yöntemleriyle iki temel kategoriye sınıflandırılmıştır. Bulgular, kromatogramların düzenlilik ve karmaşıklık ekseninde iki grupta toplandığını ve ASM, Entropy ile Contrast metriklerinin ayrıştırıcı rol oynadığını göstermektedir. Sonuçlar, toprak kromatografisi baskılarının fotoğraf sanatında ekolojik süreçlerin görsel olarak ifade edilmesine olanak tanıyan disiplinler arası bir araç olarak değerlendirilebileceğini ortaya koymaktadır.
