Osheen Harruthoonyan is a visual artist who uses analog photography to explore themes of memory, cultural heritage, and history. Processed and toned on gelatin silver paper, his limited-edition prints bring together the macro — the sun, Saturn, Mount Ararat — with the micro — specks of dust, tiny organisms — to create a new perspective on the world around us, forming a visual language that preserves, challenges, and reimagines the past.
His process explores how memory builds, fades, and reshapes itself over time. Familiar landscapes are made to feel uncertain, asking viewers to think about how their own personal and collective histories shape the way they view the world. His work centers on themes of renewal, displacement, and wonder — treating photography not as a fixed record, but as something alive and transformative.
Osheen’s work has been shown in collections and exhibitions worldwide, including the Boston Public Library, Aga Khan Museum, Museum London, the Canadian National Gallery, the Louvre, and Hudson's Bay New York.
