DARING ARMENIAN WOMEN PROJECT

Launch in London: Video screening and discussion

“Do You Know My Name” is the first of a series of video collages produced by the Daring Armenian Women Project (DAW), a collaboration that aims to challenge and disrupt the anonymity of Armenian women in public space and to make their names and lives known.  This montage showcases Armenian women from all over the world who are often overlooked, honouring their courage, intelligence, talent, and resilience.  Produced in cooperation with the Yerevan-based Bars Media Studio, this initial collage is a tribute to women from history. This London launch follows the October 25 premiere of the collage in Yerevan.

The DAW curation team, Melissa Bilal, Lerna Ekmekcioglu, Audrey Kalajian (creator), Susan Pattie, and Judith Saryan, have researched and identified women's contributions in fields as diverse as sacred music, boxing, and medicine.

Admission: £5 to include a wine reception.
