About

The comics book Last Night on Earth is the final product of the project Visual Stories from Armenia, Georgia and Ukraine, carried out by a consortium of partners from the three countries with the aim of fostering the development of the comics genre in Armenia, Georgia and Ukraine.

The book brings together three women writers Ani Asatryan (Armenia), Ekaterine Togonidze (Georgia) and Vyra Kuriko (Ukraine) who each reflect on the wars that have marked their countries and societies. Through the medium of comics, their powerful stories open up new perspectives on lived experiences of conflict, resilience, and memory. The comic artists that worked on the book are respectively Astghik Harutyunyan, Luka Lashkhi and Sofia Pokorchak. The editor of the project is Mikheil Tsikhelashvili.

The Speakers of the event are Astghik Harutyunyan, Sofia Pokorchak, Luka Lashkhi and Mikheil Tsikhelashvili. The event will be moderated by Arevik Ashkharoyan, Director of ARI Literature Foundation.
