Abstract

Today, visual practices are an integral part of content in cyberspace. They also participate in the construction of ethno-cultural identity, which acquires its own special mechanisms of construction and manifestation in cyberspace. The purpose of this study is to identify the features of ethno-cultural identity constructed in cyberspace by means of artistic practices. To achieve the goal, an analytical analysis of the scientific literature published for the period from 1994 to 2023, devoted to the issue of constructing an ethnocultural identity in cyberspace, was carried out. This made it possible to substantiate ethno-cultural cyber identity as a new special form of identity. Next, a quantitative content analysis was carried out of a sample of works of fine art by the Buryat artist A. O. Tsybikova, formed from works that are presented on the Internet. This method made it possible to identify the most frequently visually mentioned works of fine art in cyberspace by the artist, which were then analyzed using the method of philosophical and art analysis. Using this method, such works of fine art by A. O. Tsybikova as “Self-Portrait with a Model at the Winter Window” (1984) and “Voice of the Shell” (1986) were analyzed. As a result of the study, the features of the ethno-cultural identity constructed in cyberspace were identified. Among them is the understanding of the process of constructing this form of identity as an integral part of the implementation of such trends as the preservation and maintenance of ethnic culture and ethnic identity of indigenous peoples in the real world, as well as the formation and strengthening of an all-Russian civic identity. In addition, among the key mechanisms for constructing an ethno-cultural identity in cyberspace, mechanisms for updating the memory of the achievements in the field of artistic culture of the Buryat ethnic group in the Soviet period and the values of the coexistence of traditions of different ethnic cultures were identified
