Caravansarai creates a new art project “Two Times Tart” connecting Turkey with
its surrounding countries through sweets; connecting people and cultures, transgressing
political tensions in the simple action of eating.


Julie Upmeyer created the ‘Two Times Tart’, encouraging new taste combinations and geographical arrangements. In collaboration with Mehmet Ekiz and the Bereket Borek Solonu, she created specially designed tart shells, in the shape of a half circle. Upmeyer invited individuals living in Turkey, Armenia, Bulgaria, Syria, Iran, Greece, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Iraq to submit a sweet-tasting recipe to go inside the tart shells.


Here in Istanbul, you can taste these sweets, choosing for yourself which two countries you wish to combine.


‘Two Times Tart’ is a part of the Love Difference Pastry Network, a developing project using sweets to connect people, cultures and ideas. Initiated by Cittadelarte and Love Difference – Artistic Movement for an InterMediterranean Politic.

A possible solution to the world's problems?

food is a universal. Julie's young yet, but I do admire her intentions. At least she's trying.
