Destructive Metamorphosis

In 1994, architect Zoran Doršner produced a project under the title ‘Destructive Metamorphosis’ that was part of the ‘Sarajevo Dream and Reality’ exhibition. The work contains working sketches, illustrative architecture drawings of a residential unit before and after wartime changes, drawings of the civilian rescue equipment, and texts for the exhibition proposal and explanation of the work. The idea of ‘destructive metamorphosis’ proposed by Doršner represents a complex analytical process of the death of the city, its reconstruction, reproduction of space and life at the same time. These drawings show examples how interior spaces were rescaled, due to constructions protecting against bombs and cold weather, being used collectively by many people.
