ABOUT THE ARTIST
Anastasia Taylor-Lind is an English/Swedish photojournalist who has spent more than a decade creating long-form narrative global reportage on issues relating to women, violence, and war. She is a 2016 Harvard Nieman Fellow, a TED Fellow, and a contributor to National Geographic Magazine. Taylor-Lind regularly comments on the complexities of visualizing mass violence in the media, and is working on a book about the way we tell contemporary war stories. Her first monograph MAIDAN – Portraits from the Black Square, which documents the 2014 Ukrainian uprising in Kiev, was published by GOST books the same year.

Special thanks to our partners at the UNC-CH Department of Art & Art History for helping make this lecture possible.
