Özet:

 Caves are underground cavities with unique structures that form over time due to various forces, including geochemical and tectonic processes, water erosion, and hydrothermal activity. From past to the present humans have used caves for many different purposes such as shelter, dungeon, place of worship, cold storage, therapy, treatment of respiratory diseases, use of underground water, tourism, etc. Since caves are protected places, they are also the places where the oldest known works of art of mankind are located. The wide range of uses of caves, their dark and closed structures, and the different roles they have played throughout history, have always made them places of curiosity, discovery, and artistic creation. In this study, caves, which serve as shelters, were examined in terms of their role in human life, the emotions they evoke, their status as sacred places, and their representation through photography.

 Yeraltı boşlukları olan mağaralarda jeokimyasal ve tektonik süreçler, su aşındırması, hidrotermal aktivite gibi farklı kuvvetlerin etkisi altında, uzun sürede oluşan, eşsiz yapılar bulunmaktadır. İnsanoğlu mağaraları geçmişten günümüze barınak, zindan, ibadethane, soğuk hava deposu, terapi, solunum yolu rahatsızlıklarının tedavisi, yeraltı sularından yararlanma, turizm, vb. pek çok farklı amaçla kullanmıştır. Mağaralar, korunaklı yerler olduklarından insanoğlunun bilinen en eski sanat çalışmalarının da bulunduğu yerlerdir. Mağaraların bu geniş kullanım alanı, karanlık ve kapalı yapıları ile tarihsel süreçte üstlendiği farklı görevler onların daima merak uyandıran, keşfe davet eden ve sanatsal çalışmaların sürdürüldüğü mekanlar olmalarını sağlamıştır. Bu çalışmada, barınak işlevi gören mağaralar, insan yaşamındaki rolleri, uyandırdıkları duygular, kutsal mekân statüleri ve fotoğraf aracılığıyla temsil edilmeleri açısından incelenmiştir.
