SHUSHA AFTER OCCUPATION | Video REportage
AERIAL FOOTAGE
SHUSHA MEMORIAL AND VICTORY COMPLEX
SHUSHA OCCUPATION MUSEUM EXTERIOR VIEW
The main concept for the project is to highlight the existing building of the prison, which has a very peculiar and distinctive ‘T’ shape.
Therefore the strategy is to demolish most of the smaller buildings that might obstacle the view of the prison, to free the building from all sides and make it an important visual landmark in the centre of the whole complex.
This also allows the creation of wide open-air courtyards that can be used for outdoor art installations.

SHUSHA OCCUPATION MUSEUM INTERIOR VIEW
Visitors will be able to discover objects and findings from the daily life in Shusha before the occupation.
By walking on a map representing the Karabakh region visitors will encounter pin points which will virtually display artifacts that are culturally relevant to the selected area.
Visitors will be able to interact with a book- shaped installation containing Shusha's lost beauties and learn about crimes against the cultural heritage.

Tribute to the martyrs | Temporary installation
More than 3.000 poppy flowers to remember the Martyrs of the Second Karabakh War.
Shusha Victory Museum
From the Victory road, several paths lead the visitors through the park. Climbing the many staircases and ramps, the visitors pass by the flag square, which is at the core of the Victory Complex.
Standing on the highest terrace, the shape of the Victory Museum is created by four geometric solids interlocked with a double-height glass volume. The fragmented buildings reconnected by the glass skylight are a tribute to the monumental effort, made by Azerbaijan, to reunite the Karabakh territories.
