HONORED WORK: “How Did Darfur Happen?”
These pictures speak a totally different visual language than the usual reportage. They are very sophisticated and impressionistic. They unify the human plight of this story with the landscape in a dramatic way, creating a vision unlike any- one else has shown in a much-covered story. The pictures are unique and unforgettable.
