Diary of a Volunteer
Talk with Visual Artist and Wolfson Honorary Fellow
MARK NEVILLE

Thursday 27 February 2025, 5.00 - 6.00pm

Join us to hear British, Kyiv-based, visual artist, Mark Neville talk about his new work and share as-yet-unseen images and spreads from his book, Diary of a Volunteer.

Initially conceived as an artistic experiment, the charity set up by Neville, ‘Postcode Ukraine’ has delivered $400,000 of aid. Neville’s journey has resulted in his new book, Diary of a Volunteer, that documents many of the aid missions Neville and his charity have embarked on over the last 30 months, with photographs that explore themes of commitment, home, loss, and resilience. The book is a call to action for the West, urgently demanding specialised mental health support for a traumatised nation.

The Buttery, Wolfson College, Oxford, OX2 6UD. Free admission. All welcome.
