Across Ukraine photographers who used to shoot landscapes, fashion shows and weddings are focusing instead on bomb damaged buildings, soldiers in trenches and civilians caught up in the war. Pictures that they hope in future, may provide crucial evidence in war crimes trials. Reporter Lucy Ash talks to Mykhaylo Palinchak, who was the official photographer of Ukraine’s former president and now captures the horrors of the Russian invasion. She also speaks to Olexiy Sai, a graphic designer and artist who’s created a new work using the images taken by Ukraine’s army of war photographers.

Despite having some of the world’s largest oil reserves, according to new UN data more than seven million Venezuelans have left their homeland since 2015, amid an ongoing economic and political crisis. Most have moved to neighbouring Colombia and one of them is Fabiola Ferrero. She’s now won the 12th Carmignac Photojournalism award, which is a grant of 50,000 euros to carry out a 6-month field report, the results of which have become her latest project, ‘Venezuela, the Wells Run Dry’. She tells Tina Daheley about her work which chronicles the disappearance of the Venezuelan middle class and capturing the country of today.

Photojournalist Nelly Ating has been documenting events across Nigeria since 2014, including the rise of Boko Haram and its impact on the young women and girls they captured in her series ‘This war has found a home.’ She’s currently studying for her PhD in Wales looking at the role of photography and human rights. Nelly told The Cultural Frontline’s Andrea Kidd about her work and the people whose stories she’s been telling.
