Washington Post / Finbarr O'Reilly / Oct 15, 2024
“Photographers may aspire to capture scenes that galvanize public opinion and pressure world leaders to act to end wars, but few images ā€” if any ā€” have ever done this. The most graphic and disturbing images from Ukraine and Gaza have hardly slowed the carnage. So I focus on gentle interactions, quiet conversations and gestures. Iā€™m steadily amazed by the openness and candor with which people share their lives and experiences, no matter how traumatic.”
