Special Instructions

Volume two (II) of the Aftermath Project: War is Only Half the Story is a compilation of five photographic projects that deal with the consequences of violence and war. The five photographers are Kathryn Cook, Natela Grigalashvili, Tinka Dietz, Pep Bonet and Christine Fenzl. These five are from diverse geographic locations (Spain, Germany, Georgia, and the US) and photographing equally diverse geographic locations (Turkey, Armenia, Syria, Palestine, Georgia, Sierra Leone, Kenya, Macedonia, Croatia), but all with a common theme; photographing sites where violence and war have already occurred.


The objective of each photographer is similar, to tell a painful story with sensitivity and empathy, about what occurs after the war and violence has ceased. Three of the projects are completed in Black and White, while the other two are in color. Most are photographed in a factual appearing documentary style, with the others varying from direct, almost confrontational and appearing objective to very subtle and bordering on poetic.
