Repairing Streets (10 Photos)

In cities like Ankara, Lyon, and Belgrade, Ememem continues to repair cracks, potholes, and broken infrastructure—not with concrete, but with intricate mosaics. This new collection includes a fractured stairway reborn in Zagreb and a patterned burst around a manhole cover in Reims. Each work feels site-specific, shaped by the damage itself.
