The Aftermath Project is an outcome of photographer and writer Sara Terry's five-year-long project, “Aftermath: Bosnia's Long Road to Peace,” about the aftermath of the 1992-95 war in Bosnia and Hercegovina. She completed her work in 2005, convinced that a broader public understanding and discussion of aftermath issues was crucial in a world where the media regularly covers war, but rarely covers the stories that follow the aftermath of violence and destruction. Sara founded The Aftermath Project as a way to help photographers tell these crucial stories.
WHO WE ARE
Sara Terry
Founder, President and Board Chair
A former staff correspondent for the Christian Science Monitor and magazine freelance writer, Sara Terry made a mid-career transition into photojournalism and docmentary photography in the late 1990s. Her long-term project about the aftermath of war in Bosnia -- “Aftermath: Bosnia's Long Road to Peace” -- was published in September 2005 by Channel Photographics. Her work has been widely exhibited, at such venues as the United Nations, the Museum of Photography in Antwerp, and the Moving Walls exhibition at the Open Society Institute. Her photographs are in the permanent collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and in many private collections. In 2005, she received a prestigious Alicia Patterson Fellowship for her work in Bosnia. Sara resides in Los Angeles and is currently working on projects in Southeast Asia and Turkey. She is represented by Polaris Images.
To fund its first year of grants, The Aftermath Project held auctions in Los Angeles at the Michael Dawson Gallery, at Peer Gallery in New York, and at Mets & Schilt in Amsterdam. In an incredible show of support, more than 200 images were donated by documentary and fine art photographers from around the world, including images from some of the best-known photographers working in the field today. Because these photographers were an integral part of the founding of The Aftermath Project, the auction images remain online as part of our history. Some photos are still available. To inquire about a specific image, please contact us.
