Monuments of time turning to dust
Sarayarkası Sokak, Gümüşsuyu, on New Years Eve 2021/2022. It was reported that Homeless stayed in the building to flee the cold. And that they were luckily able to excape the fire with Injuries.
It was a kind of inspirational castle of the past. We did Foto- and Video shootings there with workshop-participants, a migrant from Aserbaidshan, Yaşar, lived there for years. After he left, the building was abandoned. Now its a heap of dust, Farewell beauty.
This winter leaves scars on humans and urban landscapes. Monetarian games, poverty and urban ecapades.
This building close to the Muhtar of Ömer Avni Mahallesi is still alive and searching for a buyer for some time. It should be protected as a precious monument of time.
Monuments of time turning to dust
Wooden walls like creaking storytellers
Always there like a monument of time
Walked past a thousand times
In moments of unconscious happiness
Fireworks, Bursting walls
Monuments of time turning to dust
Creaking glowes of burning memories
