Nowadays, many spatial experiments are being carried out, aimed at the relationship between the architectural space and the user body and the perceptual interaction. Research is also underway on strengthening the nature of the body with science and technology. The experimental spaces of painter S. Arakawa and poet M. Gibs can also be examined in this context. After they declared their manifestos with the slogan “We have decided not to die”, they searched for the method of creating tools to stop death. On the journey they begun with asking whether we really have to die, they questioned the possibility of perceiving the world differently by liberating the architectural body from normality. The aim of this study is to compare the couple’s works on mind and body, from two dimensional diagrams to spatial experiments, with each other and with other artists’ works from the same period. The development of tactile architecture against the Cartesian idealistic eye-centered architecture is the background of this review. On the other hand, the relationship between body and architecture is also a factor that nourishes and feeds on this background. Although the couple's spatial studies that combine mind and the whole body through movement instead of visual sense establish parallelism with various attitudes of Modern, Post Modern and Contemporary art and architecture, in terms of method and art, they still draws attention as a completely different approach in terms of origin and purpose
