ABSTRACT
This paper is the narration of the implementation process of the project called Λεμεσ ς μετ την αν πτυξη τι; ‘Limassol: The aftermath of development’, and, the socio-economic and political framework that led to its development. The project initially aimed to offer insight to citizens around the field of architecture and its local heritage; to document the contemporary city’s identity and to bond artists and architects during this project, as well as for future projects. Additionally, through the involvement of authorities and decision makers, it aimed to change the limited ways local society thinks, acts, and perceives its architecture landscape and urban fabric. This paper looks at the role of the architects and artists through the research and experiential practices of a visual social analysis of this specific city’s contemporary identity.
