People who praise infatuation, don’t quite understand love. Because love means knowledge, persistence, courage, and acceptance. “Artsakh Up Close” is all about getting to know Artsakh not through politics and pain but through real journeys that lead to the most breath-taking views and the most resilient people. 

We thank Creative Armenia for supporting the project. All photos are by Narek Aleksanyan, a Yerevan-based documentary photographer and photojournalist. Text is by Nare Navasardyan.
