cutting through the cityA Visual Storytelling Workshop with Ali Taptık28-29-30-31 March
The main focus of the ‘cutting through the city’
workshop will be to experience and depict
'commute as a space of coexistence'. We will
gather and create drawings, photographs,
stories, documents to tell the story of our time
travelling to and from school. Walking, driving,
riding or in public transportation, we will focus on
discovering ways of representing our daily
experience and our perception of Istanbul’s
various neighborhoods. Studying the effects of
design and architecture on our bodies and on our
relationships with familiar citizens can reveal how
this quotidian event shapes us like the buildings
we inhabit.
