Against Oblivion. Yusuf Tolga Ünker

Yusuf Tolga Ünker:
"There is safety in viewing the black and white photos from the Holocaust era. When we see the haunting eyes and faces of the tormented and tortured souls who were victimized by Nazi brutality, we can distance ourselves from the horrors that befell them due to the old look of those black and white images.
The reality is that people usually take a quick look at these old black and white pictures, say “how sad”, and then look away without thinking much about them; but, when the images are colorized the viewer feels the pain of the people in these pictures. Yes, it may be uncomfortable for some to see; but, reality is not always easy to accept.
