Project Information
In 2009, Düzce Commerce and Culture Centre building construction, which started four years before the two massive earthquakes that levelled the city, is left unfinished and purposeless. Without a declared reconstruction policy, one may think that city of Düzce is lacking of a monument that symbolizes the loss of lives and pre -earthquake life in the city. Unfortunately, city itself has turned into an unintentional, accidental, random monument in the last decade.
This long term project will explore the possibility of turning Düzce Commerce and Culture Center construction yard into a public art space, utopically aiming to claim a portion of the construction for a permanent art&design facility which will serve the city as both an exhibition and a production space.
