About the Project

A trans-cultural culinary exploration of tastes and geographies,
created from the combined input of 9 individuals from Turkey and its
eight surrounding countries. In Istanbul, Julie Upmeyer has
commissioned half-circle pastry shells from the small neighborhood
bakery next to the Caravansarai project space. These shells hold the
nine unique sweet fillings, made in Istanbul by Julie Upmeyer and the
Caravansarai project team, from recipes submitted by the 9
participating individuals.

Two half tarts (each 4.5 X 3 cm) are eaten simultaneously. The
combination is chosen by the eater, who decides their own pair of
flavors and geographies.


Project Vision

A ‘Two Times Tart’,
connecting people and cultures, transgressing political tensions in
the simple action of eating. The empty pastry shell is the political
boundaries, divided and hollow, tasteless and identical. The filling
is the people, cultures and traditions, held by the shells, yet
overshadowing them with their flavor and originality. Combined in a
single bite, are the creations of two individuals, two tastes
.together.


Selection

Julie Upmeyer and the Caravansarai project team will select one
recipe from each country. Results will be announced on February 11th,
2008.
Distribution

The pastry series will be first produced in La Spezia, Italy as part
of the ‘Love Difference Ice-cream and sweets as cultural passports’
event and later in Istanbul, Turkey for the opening event and
distribution period. The project can be presented in other locations
throughout the world when opportunities arise. The contributing
authors will be attributed in all project material (documentation,
signage, labels). It is understood that the selected recipes will be
published on the Caravansarai and Love Difference Pastries websites,
and be distributed through these respective networks.


About Love Difference Pastries

Gastronomy represents an opportunity to activate intercultural
creative meetings and add value to cultural differences. Love
Difference invites confectioners, chefs, artists to create sweets,
with the aim of creating Love Difference Confectioneries in
Mediterranean regions. The project is promoted by Love Difference,

About Julie Upmeyer

Julie Upmeyer is artist and initiator based in Istanbul. Working
independently and with various local and international partners, she
generates projects, events, explorations, artworks and experience-
based research. Her work as an artist has been highly influenced by
the repurposing of everyday materials, with an emphasis on
interaction and process-based practice. Her interest in alternative
spaces for art generation and exhibition lead to her involvement with
Res Artis, the international network of artist residencies, and a
three-year nomadic life - working on various projects and with
residential art spaces and festivals in India, Germany, Austria, The
Netherlands and Greece. Having been first invited to Istanbul, Turkey
as an artist-in-resident, she has now returned, making it a base for
her artistic practice. Recently she initiated Caravansarai, an
emerging independent project space and meeting point in the city.
