With an approach that fuses symbolism and documentary, Azov Horizons explores behind the scenes of a geographic area now engulfed in the violent struggle for Russian control of southern Ukraine, while evoking the transformations taking place in the societies of both countries: one mired in bellicose authoritarianism, the other fighting for survival. The images draw our attention to the roots and visible traces of the war; they are the behind the scenes of an inconceivable horror that is taking place on European soil. I hope they whisper to our collective consciousness that what we take for granted is not immutable. There are still many trips to do: I can no longer imagine a summer without Ukraine. —Patrick Wack
