Description

'Not Your Dreamland' is one of photos from my Tarlabaşı Project. I went shooting in these area between 2011-2013. Built around 1870, Tarlabaşı is one of the oldest neighbourhoods of Istanbul located at the center of the city near Taksim Square. For almost a century, a non-Muslim lower-middle class of Greek, Armenian and Jewish craftsmen lived in this neighbourhood. Today, it's inhabitants consists of people on the margins of society: Kurds moved to İstanbul due to the ongoing conflict in Turkey’s southeast, transsexual sex workers, Romans, African & Syrian migrants. In 2011, Tarlabaşı urban renewal project was kicked off. Unfortunately urban renewal plans shaped by the municipality do not include any social mechanisms, measures and programs to prevent the displacement of the low-income and marginal groups living in Tarlabaşı. On the contrary, they cause eviction, dispossession and deepens poverty denying poor people living right in the Tarlabaşı.
