Murat Germen, Sabanci University, TurkeyAbstract
The urban transformation before and after the great earthquake of Kahramanmaras in Turkey is proceeding with very serious wounds, culturally flattening the places it touches and lacking the vision to apply the same formula to different places. This oxymoronically destructive construction activity leads to the partial loss of many components classified as tangible and intangible heritage. In this context, the investigation of the sites where some urban-scale criminal acts have taken place and the collection of photographic evidence is an important, unavoidable and essential action to convey the gravity of the problems to present and future generations.
In this presentation, the presenter will analyse what kind of professional, technical and technological photographic documentation he has carried out in Antakya, one of the most valuable multicultural settlements and the most earthquake-affected city in Turkey, with the many photographs he has taken during various visits over the past two years.
