An exhibition is being regularly updated and digitally displayed to the public at Wieden+Kennedy London's gallery (16 Hanbury Street, E1 6QR) until 31 May. Ukraine Now features the work of 16 photographers on the ground who are documenting the effects of the Russian invasion. It's curated by Kateryna Radchenko:

Kateryna's intentions are unequivocal: "We must tell our story to prevent it from happening ever again, or being silenced," she says. "So it's important to show what is happening in Ukraine now. Yes, there are many international journalists in Ukraine covering the events daily. However, there is a big difference between pictures taken by journalists temporarily visiting and photographers shooting in their home cities and towns. The latter know the context and have no opportunity to return home to a safe place after completing their assignment."

The project is raising much-needed funds for the Ukrainian Charity Foundation The Depths of Art, supporting those working in art, music, theatre, literature and cultural studies. Visitors can donate via a dedicated JustGiving page or can buy prints via Photofusion.
