Description
Mittica first journeyed to Chernobyl in 2002, drawn
like many to photograph the impact of the worst technological catastrophe of the modern era. He
returned many times and rather than focusing on the ruins and relics, sought to tell the stories of
those he encountered in this unique place.
‘Chernobyl is a unique world full of contrasts—where stories of life and death intertwine and
where nature is always the first to pay the price for man’s impact on planet Earth. The ‘dead zone’
of Chernobyl today is full of life, life affected and mutated by the largest and most catastrophic
technological accident that humanity has ever suffered, a humanity that has no voice and has
suffered all the consequences.’
