Abstract

Hans Rudolph Giger, who was born in Switzerland, is an artist who has written his name in the history of plastic arts and cinema as a wonderful child. Above all, he was surprised to his viewer by the innate -even since the prenatal- biomechanical style of Giger, who was a great painter, a great designer and an extraordinary sculptor. The artist, thanks to his curious temperament not limited to only plastic arts and cinema, he made serious psychological researches and made important determinations about the chain of actions that occurred until the sexual intercourse that occurred before and during the prenatal period. While discovering the source of his own nightmares and disturbing fantasies, he discovered the extraordinary psychological significance of biological birth trauma. Giger claimed that a number of experiences that people had to live before birth had deeply shaped human subconscious and that he had been exposed to this situation. The artist has continued her work on birth, death, sexuality, the destruction of technology and industrialization. This research was conducted by using historical method technique. The aim of the study was to identify the situations that led to the emergence of Giger's designs.
