Abstract
The public realm of Istanbul manifests a visceral fear and agony caused by several social–political conflicts and struggle which has impacted the everyday life of people. Through an artistic representation of public space perception and experience in Istanbul, we reflect on how the socio-political context impacts the everyday spatialities entangling individual and collective memory, current events and future un(certainties). Going beyond the dominant Eurocentric version of ‘good’ public space, in this provocation, we argue that, delineating these emergent and largely disruptive narratives can offer potential approaches for alternative city imaginaries to enable a collective sense of identity and belonging.
