Beschreibung

Since 2015 Mark Neville has been documenting life in Ukraine, with subjects ranging from holidaymakers on the beaches of Odessa, to those internally displaced by the war in Eastern Ukraine. Employing his activist strategy of a targeted book dissemination, Neville is committed to making a direct impact upon the war in Ukraine. He will distribute 1,000 copies free to policymakers, opinion-makers, members of parliament both in Ukraine and Russia, members of the international community and its media, as well as those involved directly in the Minsk Agreements. He means to re-ignite concern about the war, galvanize the peace talks, and attempt to halt the daily bombing and casualties in Eastern Ukraine which have been occurring for seven years now. Neville's images are accompanied by short stories from Ukrainian playwright and journalist Lyuba Yakimchuk, sociological data and research from the Centre for Eastern European Studies in Berlin (ZOiS) about those displaced by the war, as well as a call to action for mental health support for those living along the frontline.
