This study set out to analyze James Turrell's Skyspace works by applying the object relations theory, compare them with several modern architectural works with a sky window based on the analysis results, and check common and differentiating features between them. The findings were as follows: first, Turrell's Skyspace works shed new light on the images of the sky by projecting inner light to the outside; second, sky windows in architecture make the self-representation of inner space clear through the introjection of light; third, 'Hill of the Buddha' reflects the most general aspect of the object relations theory as the nature of projection found in Turrell's Skyspace is added to it; and finally, Turrell installed event-like spaces and steps in 'Roden Crater' to apply the introjection of others that was deficient in Skyspace.

Since 1966 when James Turrell completed his studies on Art, he has been working on the consistent theme of Art. For the 46 years of time, site contexts, scales, methods of light have been changed and they made Turrell's unique 'project series'. Each series has different spatial, visual-perceptual forms and characteristics from other series. The differences were caused by the given situations, but also Turrell intentionally pursued it. However, there are essential theme of art that has not changed in most of Turrell's projects. Target of this paper is to study the unchanged theme as well as the differences. The study starts with three questions: first, what is the geometrical space composition?, second, what is the visual-perceptual phenomenon?, third, what is the hidden consistent theme? This research focuses on three case projects: Wedgework, Space Division Constructions, Skyspaces. These project series are in between the early small object-like installations and the late mega-scale outdoor projects. The study found that geometrical space composition has important role to give visual-perceptual dynamism to the viewer. The phenomenological perception is connected to the questions of relationship between human and space, ultimately human and the world. Although the Merleau-Ponty's philosophy has been related to the work of Turrell in various previous studies, Cartesian 3-dimensional geometry has also crucial role to experiment a viewer's perceptual boundaries. Image of infinity is another aspect of three cases, especially Space Division Constructions and Skyspaces. Through these structure, Turrell's work lead to an ultimate question of meaning for human existence in infinite space. It is hoped that this paper is helpful for Architecture and Interior design field in which light and space are essential.

올라퍼 엘리아슨은 <날씨 프로젝트>(2003)을 통해 설치라는 낯선 장르를 대중의 의식에 깊이 각인시켰다. 그 동안 엘리아슨의 작업에 대해서는 그 동안 다양한 각도에서 접근이 이루어져왔다. 여기서는 그 다양한 해석의 시도들을 크게 신체미학 정치미학 기술미학적 접근의 세 유형으로 분류한 후, 비판적 검토를 통해 그 각각에 담긴 합리적 핵심들을 하나로 종합하게 될 것이다. 하지만 이 과정에서 기존의 해석들에는 엘리아슨을 비롯해 최근 설치예술가들이 빈번히 사용하는 '빛'의 효과에 대한 언급이 거의 등장하지 않는다는 사실이 드러난다. 그것은 현재 우리가 사용하는 미학에 빛의 분위기 효과를 기술하는 데에 적합한 개념도구가 존재하지 않기 때문이다. 이 논문에서는 엘리아슨의 작업을 제대로 이해하는 데에는 이 빛의 효과에 대한 분석이 필수적이며, 그 분석에 필요한 이론의 결핍을 보충하기 위해 중세의 신학적 광학이 다시 참조할 필요가 있음을 강조하게 될 것이다. 중세의 '빛의 미학'은 설치미술을 넘어 디지털시대의 시각성 일반의 특징을 규명하는 데에도 도움이 될 수 있다.
