The Ukrainian Photo Diary shows "The Clock of War" in Zurich
Overview
Intro
"The Clock of War" shows forms of loss in war in twelve thematic chapters. Photographs from the Ukrainian photo diary document civilian life on the other side of the front.
The Russian attack on Ukraine on February 24, 2022 marked the beginning of a war that not only changed territories, but also time. With each passing day, certainties are lost: routines, certainties, relationships, plans for the future. The war has a deep impact on the everyday lives of the civilian population - often far from the front lines, but unstoppable.
The Ukrainian Photo Diary captures these progressive losses in a visual chronicle. The project was initiated in 2022 by Swiss photographer Patrick Lüthy after he and other helpers evacuated war refugees from Ukraine to Switzerland. These encounters gave rise to the idea of making the war visible from the perspective of those affected.
Today, the Ukrainian Photo Diary is an open, ongoing online project. The platform shows photographs by professional photographers as well as pictures taken by children and private individuals. The images document everyday life in a state of emergency: life under sirens, loss of home, childhood, security and normality.
The exhibition "The Clock of War" was created from this extensive archive of images. The exhibition concept follows the metaphor of a clock and is divided into twelve thematic chapters, each of which focuses on a form of loss. Together they show how war structures, accelerates, stops and repeats time - and what people in Ukraine lose day by day.
The exhibition focuses on the realities of civilian life in war and on losses that do not occur abruptly, but insinuate themselves insidiously into everyday life. The exhibition is accompanied by the book "The Clock of War", which explores the photographic works and the concept in greater depth.
