Alumni Feature Diana Markosian's in the Huffington Post

 

Kohar Minassian (2014), Videographer and Editor, and Justin Mayfield (2014), Audio Engineer, worked on putting together a video through the Huffington Post in New York. The video gave insight to the project 1915 by Diana Markosian, an Armenian-American photographer whose work is captivating. In October 2014, Markosian set out to find genocide survivors residing in Armenia. She met 10 survivors, but only three -- Movses Haneshyan, Mariam Sahakyan and Yepraksia Gevorgyan -- still had memories predating the Genocide. She then brought back mural-sized panels capturing potent landscapes from Turkey, and displayed them in the places these survivors now live in Armenia.

Markosian’s project is currently exhibited at New York University’s Hagop Kevorkian Center for Near Eastern Studies, and profiles three living survivors of the genocide as they revisit memories of what they left behind, and what they lost.
