‘Mahalle@İzmir’ is a project in which artists living in different neighborhoods of İzmir were invited to interpret the concept of mahalle (neighborhood) by photographing their neighborhoods and, therefore, to visualize different lived experiences of the neighborhood in a metropolis like İzmir as we are approaching the end of the first quarter of the 21st century. The project is enriched by written contributions of academics, researchers and cultural professionals with a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds who approached the concept of mahalle from different perspectives. 'Mahalle@İzmir' is a collaborative project by HAYY Open Space and Geniş Açı Project Office [GAPO] realized with support from Spaces of Culture and took place from
October to December 2020,
