In the article considers with the problem of the steppe memory of a nomad within the
limits of memory studies. The article deals with the problem of nomad steppe memory in the framework of
memory studies.Steppe memory is presented as a system of intuitive memories from the past to the present
and future. The movement of the steppe memory in time and space is investigated by means of codes.
The scientific paper states, that cultural codes are carriers of the steppe memory, identity, knowledge,
values and represent the internal historical, cultural reserves and heritage of the steppe civilization. The
representation of steppe memory occurs through visual and cultural codes. Visual and cultural codes are
the specific language for the transfer of national identifiers. The visual codes of the Kazakh nomad consist
in the remodeling of the steppe memory through the art of the artists of Kazakhstan in the XXI century. The
scientific paper attempts to make sense of the cultural code of the Kazakh culture through the visualization
of two frequently encountered images - the image of a woman and a yurt. Comprehension of cultural codes
occurs in the historical and philosophical feedback of the woman’s image in the Turkic and Kazakh culture.
Speaking in a broad context, the main identifiers that are within the visual and cultural codes are a person
— a nomad, a Kazakh, a woman in the Turkic and Kazakh culture of a steppe civilization, cultural markers
— steppe, aul, genus, yurt, mental patterns — intellectual syncretism, hospitality, respect and reverence for
elders. Codes as data carriers of the steppe memory of the past move national identifiers into the present
and future, creating harmony of the traditional world projecting into the modern world.
