In August 2014, the world witnessed genocide. Over the course of two weeks, the Sinjar region of Iraq was invaded by the so-called Islamic State(ISIS). ISIS militants undertook a strategic campaign to ethnically cleans Yezidis from esistence. 5,000+ men and older women were killed. Over 6,000 women and girls were taken in to ISIS captivity. Approximately 180,000 Yezidi people remain displaced almost ten years after the attack. This collaborative body of work serves as an archive to those still displaced today.
