Project Abstract

 

 UTILIZING DIGITAL MEDIA PLATFORMS by ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED INDEPENDENT ARTISTS

 

This study aims to uncover how independent, self-employed artists, particularly those without economic means, benefit from digital media platforms and how they use digital media to generate income by showcasing their art in these environments. In this context, theoretical research will be supported by interviews with independent artists residing in Turkey, Bulgaria, and France, conducted through multiple-choice and open-ended questions.  In the research, artists were asked questions such as whether they utilize digital platforms, the challenges they face, whether they seek assistance from individuals or organizations to exhibit their work in digital environments, whether they receive support from social media experts to promote their work on social media, and whether they generate income.
