In recent weeks, I had the pleasure of working with Artist Yulier Rodriguez on a personally meaningful project: KIEVBANA
Quoted description and links to recent publications below:
"Kievbana is a documentary photography series created in Havana, where two artists of different latitudes, Yulier P, a Cuban visual artist, and Jason Everett, photographer and North American military veteran, try to address through analytical images the concept of urban devastation and its anthropological consequences on society.
In this dialogue we intertwine the experiences of these two artists, one as a citizen of a country victim of totalitarianism and the other as a soldier of two wars. Kievbana tries to raise awareness about the responsibility that people must have in participating in the political life of their governments and the immediate or long-term decisions and actions taken by the circles of power that can trigger the destruction or total decay of a society or country."
