Use the artifact to discuss how acts of creative expression impact and are impacted by the people and situations that surround it. How might the artifact and the person who created it have impacted each other? For instance, how might the geographic location where the artifact was made, the materials used to create the artifact, the medium of the creative process, or the environment where the artifact is displayed influenced the creator’s life or future creative work? How might the artifact and the culture or context in which it was created have impacted each other? For instance, does the artifact add to the understanding of the culture from which it was created? What contributions does it make to continuing on a dialogue about that culture and the importance of its artifacts?

Answer: There is more than one answer in this question.

Explanation: Artifacts throughout history have proven to be helpful in expressing their creators’ social awareness. An interconnection between art and nature does exist, whether manifested by the use of natural materials or in the form of interference with the natural environment. Geography is of utter significance, since aspects such as the geological history and geophysical view of a site (mountains, plains, oceans, seas, rivers, lakes), will probably be a fundamental piece of a creator’s own psyche. An artifact (project) may be examined either by the creator’s perspective, i.e. intentions, means, interactions with the social groups to which it is addressed, or by the recipient’s perspective, i.e. parameters of the project's recruitment and presence in the field. There are also ways of integrating large-scale work into public space: as part of an architecture, as a visual intervention in the open-air urban space, and as a functional sculptural design. Last but not least, it must be underlined that there can be several goals pursued by creators, such as remodeling of degraded environmental sites, integrating art into everyday life, raising public awareness of ecological problems or exploring innovative expressive possibilities.
