“A Terrible Peace: Afghanistan's Descent into Deeper Poverty" chronicles a journey through a nation at a historic crossroads, balancing between the remnants of war and the ever-increasing poverty that peace has brought. Over three weeks in September 2023, I captured the resilience and the adversity faced by the Afghan people, navigating a landscape both stark and stunning. Pic 1 features a seasoned old man guarding the Blue Mosque in Herat. His role, earned through a history of combat, likely includes battles against Soviet forces, making him a living embodiment of Afghanistan's tumultuous past.
