Abstract :In this study, the effects of conceptual art on textiles are examined under the title of fiber art. Fiber art is also known as textile art. It is an interdisciplinary field in which fibers and textile materials are used as a means of artistic expression. It is not limited to surfaces composed solely of fibers but also includes functional textile products such as clothing. Therefore, clothing design is also suitable to be examined within the scope of fiber art. Fiber art is considered not only as a surface-focused production area but also as a broad framework that encompasses garments, and the multifaceted relationships between art and textiles have been explored. This research investigates the evolution of textile art from the weaving tradition to fiber art, analyzing the impacts of the Industrial Revolution, the Bauhaus school, and conceptual art; and reveals the influence of historical processes such as the Arts and Crafts movement on the transformation of fiber art. As a result, it argues that fiber art and textile art should be evaluated within a common framework. The approach of conceptual art that prompts the viewer to think has paved the way for fiber art to contribute to the art world. The works of artists such as Joseph Beuys, Miriam Schapiro, Judy Chicago, and Christo and Jeanne-Claude have been analyzed to explore the intersection points between conceptual art and fiber art. Historical and conceptual analysis methods have been used as methodology to present a systematic approach to explaining the connection between fiber art and conceptual art and to evaluate the position of textile materials in the art world; the relationship between conceptual art
