Void of all

Fikirtipe is an illusive apparition. The defragmented wasteland is in a state between going and gone, as the bones of architecture take on new forms to create spaces that are neither inside or outside, neither completely real or completely imagined, neither deserted or vivid. Boundaries of buildings are vanishing, as the elements collapse and open up, to allow access to unique and ever-changing views into the interior. The series “Void of all” shows the architectural mutilation happening in Fikirtepe. The work is an attempt to spotlight the remaining spaces, which people lived in and now live beside, until they clear the way forever.

Does Architecture have an afterlife ?
