Oleksandr - Stanton Sharpe
“Oleksandr, a Ukrainian soldier from Kharkiv, Ukraine, revisits the site in the outskirts of Kharkiv where he and his team fought off a Russian platoon from entering the city. Though the view appears serene, Oleksandr must watch his every step as the field he walks on is riddled with unexploded ordinances from the fighting that took place weeks earlier and that continues today,” says the photographer Stanton Sharpe. “Scattered amongst the trees on the ridge over the horizon, Oleksandr’s team surveys the makeshift base where Russian soldiers had settled before the battle.”
