Other Spaces:
Others' Spaces
by Demet Dincer
LOCATION: SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
The project employs photography and collage techniques to narrate how
this other space is already an others' space. By considering
photography as an index,2 four layouts were designed containing words and visuals. The selected photos
depict the objects left in the prementioned hub of the park, representing their
actant roles "creating an asymmetry between absent makers and
occasional users."3 The nonhumans highlight temporary interventions in the space, portraying the
residue moments. These objects act or become a part of an act and, like a city,
are always in transformation, and they form a new composition as an urban
revelation. The transitory inhabitants create other terrains – resembling
bedrooms, supermarkets, and cemeteries - from which arise unexpected borders and
interfaces, resulting in new interiors and exteriors.
