Creator & Director Kamusal Alanda Sessiz Disko (Public Silent Disco)
A project to reclaim public spaces by means of dance, Istanbul, 2024
Kamusal Alanda Sessiz Disko is a project conceived by Ayşe Draz in 2023, bringing a silent disco into the streets of Istanbul as a quiet act of reclamation. Participants moved through public space wearing wireless headphones, dancing to music only they could hear, turning sidewalks and squares into temporary stages without disturbing the city around them. The silence was intentional: a way of occupying space gently but undeniably, asking what it means to claim a city through the body without demanding it surrender anything in return.
