Monuments and Memory: The Remediation and the Visual Appropriations of the Mother Armenia Statue on Instagram During the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War

Lala Mouradian · 2021

Catalogue summary

Instagram images of Yerevan’s 1967 Mother Armenia statue were reworked during the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war by users in Armenia and the diaspora, linking monument memory with visual appropriation.

Why this matters

The thesis joins Armenian visual culture, digital memory, and Artsakh-related conflict in a clearly bounded contemporary case.
