War doesn't end when the photograph is taken. For many people, that's where the story begins. In Part 2 of this special two-part conversation, I once again sit down with Ukrainian photojournalists Oksana Parafeniuk and Iva Sidash. While Part 1 focused on home, and their personal journeys in photography, this second conversation moves deeper into the lasting impact of war on individuals, families, and communities. Together, we talk about what happens long after the headlines fade and the cameras move on. We explore the emotional weight of documenting difficult stories, the experiences of children growing up during war, and the responsibility of telling stories that continue long after a photograph has been made. Along the way, there are also moments of hope, humor, and humanity that remind us why these stories matter in the first place. Grab a coffee, settle in, and enjoy Part 2 of my wonderful conversation with Oksana Parafeniuk and Iva Sidash.

For most photojournalists, war is something they travel to. For others, it's the reality of the place they call home.  In Part 1 of this special two-part conversation, I sit down with Ukrainian photojournalists Oksana Parafeniuk and Iva Sidash. Iva was on our show in 2023, one year after the Russian invasion, but since then her photography journey has taken her further, studying at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York. Oksana, meanwhile, has gone from being a fixer to becoming both a mother and an internationally published photographer in just a few years. Together, we talk about what it means to photograph the country you grew up in while living through many of the same realities yourself on a daily basis. We talk about finding their way into photography, the importance of home, and how war can shape both the stories in front of the camera and the people behind it. Next week, we continue the conversation with a deeper look at the realities of war, its impact on children and families, and the emotional cost of documenting it.  Grab a coffee, settle in, and enjoy Part 1 of my conversation with Oksana Parafeniuk and Iva Sidash.  *****

Much of Ukrainian history has been misunderstood or overlooked. In conversation with Ukrainian writer Oksana Zabuzhko about her historical novel The Museum of Abandoned Secrets. How are traumatic events in Ukraine's past remembered – or deliberately silenced? And how do unresolved histories continue to shape lives and identities decades later? With the Dutch translation of The Museum of Abandoned Secrets, we revisited this monumental family saga spanning six decades of Ukrainian history — from its Soviet past to its hesitant steps towards independence and democracy in the 1990s. Written in 2009, at a time when the future of Ukraine looked bright, but with the war in its 5th year and Russia's continuing effort to erase Ukrainian culture, The Museum of Abandoned Secrets has never been as urgent.Oksana Zabuzhko , Ukraine's leading contemporary author, was born in 1960. She graduated from the department of philosophy of Kyiv Shevchenko University in1982, and obtained her PhD in philosophy of arts in 1987. After the publication of her novel Field Work in Ukrainian Sex (1996), later named 'the most influential Ukrainian book for the 15 years of independence', she has been living as a free-lance author. She is Vice-President of the Ukrainian PEN. Zabuzhko lives in Kyiv.Programme editor: Ianthe MosselmanZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Oksana Zabuzjko er en av Ukrainas fremste forfattere i den post-sovjetiske generasjonen. I 1996 skapte hun furore med debutromanen Feltstudier i ukrainsk sex, som nå kommer på norsk i Dagfinn Foldøys oversettelse. Her brøt hun med det gjeldende syn på kvinnens rolle i samfunnet og i parforholdet, der hun var ventet å underordne seg mannen.Romanen har blitt et referanseverk for øst-europeisk feminisme, og tematiseringen av kvinnelige erfaringer, språk og makt har ført til sammenligninger med forfattere som Jamaica Kincaid og Angela Carter.Romanen kretser rundt det destruktive forholdet mellom forfatteren Oksana og skulptøren Mykola, så vel som utfordringene Oksana møter i kraft av å være en kvinnelig, ukrainsk poet. I et muntlig språk som er delvis henvendt til leseren, delvis fortellerens egen bevissthetsstrøm, utforsker Zabuzjko både hva det vil si å være ukrainsk og hva det vil si å være kvinne, i en tid da begge disse størrelsene lå i støpeskjeen.Zabuzjko har utgitt en rekke prisvinnende romaner, diktsamlinger og essaysamlinger, inkludert titler som Museet for etterlatte hemmeligheter og Min lengste reise. Hun har i tillegg en doktorgrad i filosofi, og har undervist i ukrainsk litteratur ved blant annet Harvard og University of Pittsburgh.Også forfatter og historiker Lotta Elstad har utforsket historie og kvinnelige erfaringer i skjønnlitterær form, blant annet i Jeg nekter å tenke og de kritikerroste Xiania-bøkene. På Litteraturhuset møtte hun Zabuzjko til samtale om sex, kjærlighet og kvinnesyn i Ukraina.Samtalen foregikk på engelsk. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Oksana Zabuzhko is one of the central writers of Ukraine's post-Soviet generation. In 1996, she caused great controversy with her debut novel, Field Work in Ukrainian Sex, in which she challenged the current view won women's role in society and in the relationship, where she was expected to be subordinate to the man.The novel has become a work of reference for Eastern European feminism, and with its exploration of female experience, language and power, it has been compared to writers such as Jamaica Kincaid and Angela Carter.The novel portrays the destructive relationship between the writer Oksana and the sculptor Mykola, as well as the many challenges Oksana faces as a young female, Ukrainian poet. In an immediate and colloquial language, partly addressed to the reader, partly the narrator's own stream of conciousness, Zabuzhko navigates what it means to be Ukrainian and what it means to be a woman, at a moment in time when both identities were being negotiated.Zabuzhko has published a number of award winning novels, essay collections and books of poetry, including The Museum of Abandoned Secrets and The Longest Journey. She has a PhD in philosophy, and she has taught Ukrainian literature at Harvard and the University of Pittsburgh.Author and historian Lotta Elstad has also explored history and female experience in novels such as Jeg nekter å tenke [«I refuse to think»] and the critically acclaimed Xiania series. She joined Zabuzhko for a conversation about sex, love and the view of women in Ukraine.The conversation was held in English. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Send a textPing pong tables do not build trust and wellness stipends do not fix a broken culture. We get real about the messy intersection of employee benefits, wellness, culture, and retention, and why the “perks” playbook fails when it is copied from companies with totally different people, pay realities, and business goals.I sit down with Oksana Lukash, a seasoned chief people officer and leadership advisor, to unpack what actually makes a culture scalable. We talk about culture starting on day one, showing up in every decision and every conversation, and why leaders have to be honest about expectations so the right talent self-selects in. We also dig into the hidden damage of “culture subtraction” hires and why protecting team dynamics is not soft, it is financial.Then we shift into practical employee benefits strategy: working with a strong benefits broker, using utilization data, running short pulse surveys, and designing coverage around your real workforce demographics. We explore why meeting basic needs through compensation comes before any wellness program, and how high-impact benefits like fertility or adoption support can beat the ROI of many traditional retention tactics. We also highlight the underused lever that changes everything: ongoing benefits education, so employees can confidently use tools like HSA, FSA, dependent care, and retirement plans.If you're a founder, HR leader, or operator trying to scale without burning people out, this is a playbook you can use immediately.

Where does the responsibility sit — on the brand, the retailer, or the shopper marketing ecosystem — to close that gap?The report highlights Gen Z rebranding chores through cultural frameworks like “Giving the Dishes a Bath” and #CleanTok. How is Clorox thinking about reaching this cohort?How are sensory experiences becoming a legitimate product development and marketing discipline at Clorox, and do you see this creating new shelf segmentation opportunities at retail?How do you help retailers and their buyers understand that this isn't cannibalization, it's a category expansion opportunity?Given that laundry dissatisfaction skews toward younger and multicultural households, what does a winning insights-to-innovation pipeline look like for that category?Pet owners use ~21 cleaning products and clean floors more frequently, yet most don't buy separate laundry products for pet-related loads.

From our An Adoption Story series. You can watch her documentary story on Alex Gilbert's YouTube channel. Oksana Rennie was born in 1991 in a small village in the western part of Russia's Smolensk region. In 1996, at five and a half years old, she was adopted from the Smolensk District Children's Home by her parents and raised in the city of Christchurch in New Zealand.Growing up far from her birthplace, she wanted to fit in like any other New Zealand child, while carrying only fragments of memory from her early years in Russia.In her early thirties, after becoming a mother herself, Oksana began searching for answers about what happened before she entered the children's home. With very little information too, she uncovers unexpected connections to her birth family, including a sister and cousin she never knew existed.This is her story.

Have you ever looked at a global hiring plan and wondered whether you are building a team, or accidentally buying a bundle of hidden fees, legal risk, and avoidable stress? In this episode, I'm joined by Oksana Petrus from Alcor, where she leads customer success and operations, helping tech companies build and scale engineering teams across Eastern Europe and Latin America. If you have ever tried to expand beyond your home market, you know the promise is real, access to great talent, broader coverage across time zones, and the chance to build faster. But the reality can get messy quickly once contracts, compliance, culture, and cost assumptions collide. Oksana brings a sharp perspective because she has seen both sides. Earlier in her career she worked as a lawyer with outsourcing providers, so she understands how pricing structures and contracts can create surprises once a team is already in motion. We talk about why so many leaders start out thinking outsourcing will be simple, then discover they cannot clearly see what they are paying for, who is actually doing the work, or how much of the spend is going to overhead. We also discuss the growing challenge of trust in recruiting, especially as AI tools make it easier to fake profiles, inflate experience, and even perform better in interviews than the person behind the screen can deliver on the job. Oksana shares how teams are responding with stronger verification, background checks, and a more transparent operating model so hiring managers can feel confident about who they are bringing in. We also dig into the real cost of global scaling, and why "salary charts" are only the starting point. Oksana explains how benefits, taxes, local customs like a 13th salary, currency controls, and even language realities can derail budgets and slow hiring if teams do not have local insight. The result is often frustration on both sides, candidates lose momentum, managers lose time, and projects drift. Culture comes through as a theme too, and not in a vague, feel good way. We talk about how different regions communicate, how expectations need to be set early, and why "challenge culture" can be a strength when leaders welcome it. Oksana shares an example of a CTO who came to value Eastern European teams precisely because they questioned decisions and offered alternatives that improved outcomes. If you are a founder, CTO, or business leader thinking about scaling an engineering team this year, this episode is a practical look at what tends to go wrong, why it gets expensive, and how to build a smarter path forward without overcommitting too early.  Where do you think the line is between smart global expansion and taking on complexity before your business is ready for it, and what has your own experience taught you?

En febrero de 2022 se abría ante nosotros un escenario que no conocíamos en la historia reciente: una guerra a las puertas de Europa. La guerra de Ucrania. Rusia invadiendo un país. Parecía que iba a ser una guerra relámpago y ahora nos parece una guerra imposible de terminar. Se ha cronificado. Este es el primero de dos episodios en un especial que el podcast Un tema Al día en torno al cuarto aniversario de la guerra de Ucrania. Una guerra que es una guerra fría: congelada en el tiempo, sin grandes avances, sin acuerdos de paz… pero con una población que sufre bombardeos, ataques de drones, y la aparición de un nuevo elemento que se utiliza por parte de Rusia como arma de guerra: el frío. Gabriela Sánchez es la enviada especial de elDiario.es a Ucrania. Llegó a Kiev y lleva una semana recorriendo el país, hablando con ciudadanas como Victoria y como Oksana, a las que escuchamos en el episodio. Ellas están viviendo un invierno muy duro, con temperaturas por debajo de los cero grados, y no tienen forma de calentarse debido a los ataques rusos a los sistemas energéticos. Analizamos en qué situación llega esta guerra a su cuarto aniversario, también, con el codirector del Instituto de Estudios sobre Conflictos y Acción Humanitaria, Jesús Núñez. *** Envíanos una nota de voz por Whatsapp contándonos alguna historia que conozcas o algún sonido que tengas cerca y que te llame la atención.

Kai daug vyrų kariauja, darbus, kur anksčiau dominavo vyrai, perima moterys. Taip Ukrainos fabrikuose gimsta lyčių lygybė. Ne iš teorijos, o iš būtinybės. 2025 metų rugpjūtį NARA žurnalistai Sigita Vegytė ir Denis Vėjas lankėsi Kamianske, netoli Dnipro esančioje metalurgijos gamykloje „Kamet-Stal'“, kur moterys stoja prie kranų, suvirinimo aparatų, valdymo pultų ir prisiima atsakomybes, kurios anksčiau joms buvo draudžiamos. Šios garso dokumentikos herojės – Katia, Oksana ir Olga – pavargusios, ironiškos ir triukšmingos. Vienu metu jos valdo kranus, skaldo bajerius, selfinasi, juokiasi ir pykstasi su vyrais per racijas. Taip jos laužo stereotipus apie vyriškas ir moteriškas profesijas bei kaip moteris turėtų elgtis atėjusios į „vyrišką“ sritį.

During this record-breaking cold winter, millions of Ukrainians are regularly left without electricity, water, or heat as temperatures plummet to -20°C and below.

“How could there be a war in this city?” is the plaintive question that starts Oksana Makysymchuk's “Arguments for Peace”. Like ours, the world of her poem holds both the “goodness of the universe” and “a foreign leader / warning of invasion”. She offers no pat answers for what to do in the face of conflict — just a dizzying sense of disbelief and the deep desire to hold tight to the people and life around us.  We invite you to subscribe to Pádraig's weekly Poetry Unbound Substack, read the Poetry Unbound books and his newest work, Kitchen Hymns, or listen to all our Poetry Unbound episodes.  Oksana Maksymchuk is a bilingual Ukrainian American poet, scholar, and translator.

She coedited Words for War: New Poems from Ukraine, an anthology of contemporary poetry and has published a few single-author volumes of translations.

En Ukraine, les campagnes de frappes russes sur les infrastructures énergétiques se poursuivent quotidiennement. Depuis le 10 octobre, pas une journée ne s'est passée sans que missiles ou drones ne se soient abattus sur des centrales énergétique ou thermiques, plongeant le pays dans le noir et dans le froid au cœur de l'hiver. La situation est particulièrement critique à Kiev. De notre correspondante à Kiev, Depuis 2022, des millions d'Ukrainiens se sont trouvés sous le danger constant des attaques aériennes russes. À Kiev, des raids de grande ampleur, combinant missiles et drones, se succédaient presque régulièrement, toutes les deux ou trois semaines. Cette année, la Russie est passée à la vitesse supérieure et semble vouloir plonger l'Ukraine dans un hiver sans fin : désormais, plus un seul jour ne se passe sans que les attaques se succèdent sur Kiev. Le but de ces frappes est clair : mettre à genoux la capitale et procéder à l'anéantissement total des capacités énergétiques de l'Ukraine. Alors que Moscou nie cibler les civils ukrainiens, ils sont pourtant, quotidiennement, les premières victimes de ces frappes : à Kiev, plus de trois millions de résidents se trouvent, en plein hiver, face à des pénuries prolongées d'électricité, d'eau et de chauffage. Le tout, alors que l'Ukraine est en proie à une vague de froid polaire, où les températures, qui ont avoisiné les -20°C ces deux dernières semaines, se stabilisent désormais à - 10°C. À lire aussiUkraine: en pleine vague de froid, des frappes russes plongent à nouveau Kiev dans le noir Devant l'ampleur des dégâts, et suite à une frappe dévastatrice sur les centrales énergétiques de la ville le 9 janvier dernier, le maire Vitali Klitschko a même enjoint ceux des habitants qui le pouvaient à quitter la ville. Deux semaines plus tard, il affirme que selon des estimations basées sur les bornages téléphoniques, près de 600 000 personnes ont quitté la capitale ukrainienne. Les quartiers populaires en première ligne Tous ne peuvent cependant pas quitter la ville, et pour une grande majorité de la population, il s'agit de survivre à la fois aux frappes et à leurs conséquences. Sur la rive gauche de la ville, où les quartiers populaires sont les plus affectés, les résidents des barres d'immeubles de grande hauteur sont particulièrement exposés : ils vivent tout près de centrales visées par les Russes, et leur approvisionnement en électricité, chauffage et eau est devenu plus qu'aléatoire. Oksana, une mère de famille explique : « La situation est très difficile, on se retrouve sans électricité pendant dix heures, vingt heures d'affilée. Et lorsqu'elle apparaît, c'est au milieu de la nuit, alors je me lève pour charger toutes nos batteries. Sans électricité, il n'y a pas d'eau non plus, et comme l'immeuble a plusieurs étages, elle n'arrive plus aux étages supérieurs ». L'immeuble en question a déjà été éventré par une frappe de drones, et les fenêtres des étages inférieurs ont été remplacées par des panneaux en bois. Pourtant, Oksana n'envisage pas de quitter Kiev : « Nous avons bien de la famille dans l'ouest, où nous nous étions réfugiés début 2022, mais mon mari est en situation de handicap et en attente d'une opération, je ne me vois donc pas partir maintenant. En plus, nous avons ici tous nos proches, dont mes parents, dans des immeubles voisins ». Tout comme Oksana, Valentina, une retraitée, tente de survivre malgré les conditions difficiles : « Dieu merci, une partie de l'immeuble est encore chauffée, et chez moi, je conserve mon manteau pour ne pas avoir froid ». Pour ceux des résidents qui restent dans la capitale, le quotidien s'organise autour de rares heures d'électricité pendant lesquelles il faut recharger ses appareils électriques et batteries, faire tourner une machine à laver, ou encore faire des provisions d'eau courante. Les nuits, au cours desquelles les frappes sont plus fréquentes, se passent dans le froid, dans des caves, parkings ou encore stations de métro, pour ceux qui ont encore l'énergie de s'abriter des bombes. Les « points d'invincibilité », îlots de chaleur dans une ville à l'arrêt Devant cette crise humanitaire qui s'accentue à mesure que la Russie continue de frapper Kiev, la ville a déployé une cinquantaine de générateurs mobiles. Dans certaines cours d'immeubles affectés, des milliers, qui sitôt reconnectés au réseau énergétique sont à nouveau plongés dans le froid et le noir après chaque nouvelle frappe, les secouristes ont mis en place de grandes tentes oranges qui constituent des « points d'invincibilité », des îlots énergétiques dans lesquels les habitants peuvent venir se réchauffer, travailler à distance ou bien encore passer la nuit si les conditions ne leur permettent plus de dormir chez eux. Ces îlots ne sont pas une nouveauté : depuis le début des raids aériens à l'hiver 2022, les bâtiments publics dotés de générateurs, administrations, restaurants, écoles, se sont constitués eux aussi « points d'invincibilité ». Dans le centre historique de la ville, en face de l'université Taras Shevchenko, une yourte installée par une association ukraino-kazakhe en 2023 a rouvert ses portes comme îlot de chaleur et d'électricité. Ici, Natacha, ukrainienne, reçoit ceux qui entrent avec un thé chaud et des pâtisseries kazakhes. Elle explique : « Les Kazakhes croient en notre victoire, et avec cette yourte ils nous apportent un peu d'amour et leur soutien. Ils ne peuvent pas nous fournir d'armes, mais ils montrent par d'autres gestes qu'ils sont nos côtés ». Pourtant, après plusieurs hivers où le pire avait été évité, nombre de ces « îlots » ne sont plus en mesure d'accueillir temporairement les résidents de la capitale. Dans le centre historique de la ville, berceau des administrations, ambassades et organisations internationales et jusqu'à cette année relativement épargné par les coupures d'électricité, la situation s'est fortement dégradée. Si les cafés et restaurants fonctionnent encore, en sous-régime, grâce à de petits générateurs diesels au bruit assourdissant et à la forte odeur de diesel, et souvent dans une semi-obscurité, des bâtiments publics répertoriés sur l'application municipale comme ouvertes en principe 24/7 pour servir de refuge de chaleur et d'électricité aux résidents, gardent porte close, comme le déplore Alla, concierge d'une école déserte : « Ici, il n'y a pas de chauffage, ni de connexion internet, ou d'électricité, et personne pour venir remplir le réservoir du générateur, alors on reste fermés ». Face à la crise, les écoles de Kyiv resteront d'ailleurs fermées pour les jours à venir : les vacances scolaires ont été prolongées jusqu'à début février, afin que les élèves puissent rester hors de la ville s'ils en ont la possibilité. À lire aussiUkraine: à Kiev, les écoles fermées jusqu'au 1er février après des frappes sur les infrastructures énergétiques Dans l'un de ses derniers communiqués, l'entreprise DTEK, premier fournisseur privé d'électricité, prévient ses usagers : « Les calendriers de coupures d'électricité ne sont pas valables actuellement : la grille énergétique de la ville fonctionne toujours en état d'urgence, il n'y a pas assez d'énergie. (...) Jamais une telle chose ne s'est produite à l'échelle mondiale. Depuis un mois, il n'y a pas eu un seul jour sans panne d'électricité, et nos ingénieurs ont la charge historique de nous remettre sur pied ». Du côté du gouvernement, Denys Shmyhal, nouveau Ministre de l'Énergie, promet de restaurer les infrastructures au plus vite, mais met également en garde contre de nouvelles frappes russes, « y compris sur l'infrastructure qui garantit le fonctionnement des centrales nucléaires ».

Zbierky na výzbroj, muníciu a dokonca i rakety pre ukrajinskú armádu. Iniciatíva Darček pre Putina vyzbierala na pomoc pre Ukrajincov už viac ako miliardu českých korún. Aktuálne sa zbiera na 50 sanitiek Oksana. Podporujeme tých, ktorí bojujú pretože sa chcú brániť agresií, hovorí Jozef Dobrík z tejto iniciatívy. A prečo v kognitívnej vojne s Ruskom prehrávame? Príbeh dnes už legendárnej sanitky Oksana sa začal písať v novembri 2024 kedy sa sedem žien zo Slovenska vydalo na Ukrajinu aby brániacej sa armáde priviezli evakuačné sanitky, medzi nimi aj Oksanu. Už o dva mesiace ju však ničivo zasiahol ruský dron. Potreba záchrany ranených priamo z miest bojov však týmto príbehom ani zďaleka nekončí, práve naopak.No a práve o tom je myšlienka aktuálnej zbierky "Operácia Oksana 50," teda nákup 50 poľných sanitiek pre Ukrajinu. Zbierku organizuje občianska iniciatíva Darček pre Putina, ktorá vznikla na podporu ukrajinskej armády po napadnutí nášho východného suseda Ruskom. Z vyzbieranej sumy viac ako miliarda českých korún, tak boli zákupené húfnice, drony, množstvo streliva, lekárničiek, dávok jedla pre vojakov, ale aj vrtuľník Čestmír či dokonca raketa Dana. Za iniciatívou stojí aj grafický dizajnér, ako i bývalý člen vedenia Stratkomu expremiéra Fialu, Jozef "Dodo" Dobrík.Je správne posielať na Ukrajinu zbrane a má to dnes ešte stále zmysel? Neskončí táto pomoc napokon v nejakej ukrajinskej korupčnej schéme a ako tomu táto iniciatíva vie zabrániť? Je toto naozaj naša vojna a čím presne sa nás týka?No a čom je strategická komunikácia štátu a prečo na ňu tento štát prakticky úplne rezignoval? Ako prebieha kognitívna vojna a prečo v nej dnes až zúfalo prehrávame? A vieme vôbec čo sú to tie hodnoty, ktoré tomuto štátu dávajú zmysel a ktoré by stálo za to brániť ich aj zo zbrańou v ruke?Ak mám z niečoho obavy, tak z toho, ako je táto vojna nevidená a ako sme na ňu zúfalo nepripravení. Odolnosť sa však dá budovať aj na úrovni komunity. Hodnoty, ktoré stojí za to brániť, sú všade okolo nás a ak to neurobíme my, zvíťazí tá strana, ktorá do toho investuje viac úsilia. Takže, "Preboha, budujme niečo a bráňme hodnoty, ktorým veríme," odkazuje Dodo Dobrík.Ráno Nahlas s Jozefom Dobríkom z iniciatívy Darček pre Putina. Pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský.

We really don't hear too many stories about "The American Dream" anymore. As I mention in the intro, Oksana's story comes as close as you'd expect to it. From a musical talent in Siberia to an amazing business in Los Angeles, it's certainly been an interesting road for her. And you'll hear about it in this interview. Granted, I don't normally do episodes about businesses, but hey, last week's with Arthur Frischman ("The Long Island Sign Guy") was about a guy with a business who became a viral sensation on social media. Will that happen for Oksana? I guess it's a wait and see for that, but I certainly wouldn't bet against what this lady can do.

In Visible Presence: Soviet Afterlives in Family Photos (MIT Press, 2023) is an absorbing exploration of Soviet-era family photographs that demonstrates the singular power of the photographic image to command attention, resist closure, and complicate the meaning of the past. A faded image of a family gathered at a festively served dinner table, raising their glasses in unison. A group of small children, sitting in orderly rows, with stuffed toys at their feet and a portrait of Lenin looming over their heads. A pensive older woman against a snowy landscape, her gaze directed lovingly at a tombstone. These are a few of the evocative images in In Visible Presence by Dr. Oksana Sarkisova and Dr. Olga Shevchenko, an exquisitely researched book that brings together photographs from Soviet-era family photo archives and investigates their afterlives in Russia.In Visible Presence explores the photographic images' singular power to capture a fleeting moment by approaching them as points of contestation and possibility. Drawing on over a decade of fieldwork and interviews, as well as internet ethnography, media analysis, and case studies, In Visible Presence offers a rich account of the role of family photography in creating communities of affect, enabling nostalgic longings, and processing memories of suffering, violence, and hardship. Together these photos evoke youthful aspirations, dashed hopes, and moral compromises, as well as the long legacy of silence that was passed down from grandparents to parents to children.With more than 250 black and white photos, In Visible Presence is an astonishing journey into domestic photography, family memory, and the ongoing debate over the meaning of the Soviet past that is as timely and powerful today as it has ever been. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
