Beyond the Comfort Zone: A Photographer’s Journey into Ukraine

Meet author and photojournalist Christopher Briscoe as he shares photographs and experiences from his time in Ukraine.

While journalism documents the initial chapters of history, it’s Christopher Briscoe’s lens and first-person accounts that bring those moments into sharp focus, immortalizing them in vivid detail. As a seasoned photojournalist, Briscoe delves into compelling stories no matter where he is: from a tense visit to Oregon’s Death Row to photo-essays of New Orleans, Ethiopia, and Cambodia.

In his latest gripping book, “The Child on the Train,” Briscoe travels to war-torn Ukraine, navigating perilous routes to uncover the poignant narratives of ordinary people grappling with the harsh realities of the Russian invasion. Through his evocative photographs and narratives, Briscoe illuminates the resilience and spirit of a nation under siege, shining a light in a time of darkness.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event.

Besides being childish and unimaginative, his slurs have become methodically vicious.
