Ukraine & Russia – Past & Present

Ukraine & Russia – Past & Present

When Ukraine declared itself independent in 1991 it sealed the final collapse
of the Soviet Union. Photographer Tim Smith was there to document both sides
of this pivotal moment.
 
As the uncovering of a previously forbidden history helped to forge a new
nation, this past also shapes the present. To support those impacted by the war
Tim will showcase his images in a talk exploring the stories of Ukraine and
British Ukrainians.  
Tim’s photographs of Ukraine were published in The Observer, The Guardian
and other newspapers. In 1997 he produced a touring exhibition entitled
Ukraine’s Forbidden History with a book by Dewi Lewis Publishing.
