This piece is really really important to me. Special thanks to @clesliephoto and to the team at @OpenCanada.

Must read: "I don’t like to talk about the Siege of Sarajevo, but it’s important for you to understand what it was really like...I remember when the first sirens went off, and my mother grabbed me and we hid behind the shoe cabinet. That was day one. It went on for four years."

🇧🇦 Penalty heroics! Bosnia and Herzegovina are one win away from the #FIFAWorldCup.

Perfectly captured. Couldn’t agree more.

Sarajevo contains, in myriad multitudes, what I believe to be the Platonic ideal of urban life: a vast rhizome of tiny cafes, hidden in alleys and secret gardens, from which you can quietly observe the flow of the world, without the world ever thinking to look back at you.

“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.”

30 years of sorrow in a single word. ❤️

[Remembering Srebrenica @SrebrenicaUK]

Today marks 30 years since the Srebrenica genocide, when 8,372 Bosniak men and boys were murdered for their identity. We remember the victims, honour survivors, and commit to stand against hatred, denial & division.

I had an opportunity to peek into this new space at the @SrebrenicaMC over the past few days. It is simply staggering. The combination of the cavernous halls with the delicately crafted exhibits work dramatically together to convey the human toll of the Srebrenica Genocide.

"Only by learning from the past does it become possible to share in each other’s loss and look together to the future."

In Srebrenica, The Duchess of Edinburgh has delivered a message from The King at the Commemoration of the 30th Anniversary of the Srebrenica Genocide.

Happy Independence Day Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Few peoples have (re)gained their sovereignty through greater adversity & fewer still have had to continue to defend it for as long as the citizens of BiH. But in vain do her adversaries labor.

Courage & joy to all free peoples.

Sa velikom tugom primili smo vijest o smrti dr. Paula Lowea - divne duše, dragog prijatelja i nevjerovatnog umjetnika i fotografa. Paulov rad je vječna inspiracija za sve nas i bila je čast i privilegija raditi zajedno s njim skoro dvije decenije i imati ga za jednog od osnivača našeg Savjetodavnog odbora. Njegov doprinos očuvanju sjećanja na Opsadu Sarajeva i rat u Bosni je nemjerljiv i neizmjerno će nam nedostajati.

Dragi Paul: Hvala na podršci, znanju i prijateljstvu. Naš centar i naša država te nikada neće zaboraviti. Zauvijek ćeš ostati u našem radu, umjetnosti i mislima. Počivaj u miru i moći.

Naš tim izražava najdublje saučešće porodicama Lowe i Abadžić.

[Sarajevo Security Conference @SSC_Sarajevo]

With deep sorrow we share the news of the passing of our dear friend, Paul Lowe. He will always be remembered for his unwavering dedication, compassion, and art. Paul's contributions to society have left a lasting mark, and his legacy will be honored with the respect it deserves.

“Amira brings to mind Edith Piaf; she is the Balkan Billie Holiday. There are moments that echo even Callas. The voice is silken but determined; it is cast in deep and occult shadow, but is often playful and erotic; it yearns and laughs…”

Today should only be about remembering and commemorating, united by respect and pain, in silence.
