Including photographers David Sims, Willy Vanderperre and Tim Walker, Dust Off's photographic print sale in aid of War Child is on until 30 November.
Featuring over 150 internationally renowned photographers including David Sims, Willy Vanderperre, Tim Walker, David Bailey and more, the initiative has mobilised the photographic community to bring together an eclectic range of talent from all corners of the industry; from internationally established and recognisable names to emerging image-makers, all united in their efforts to support the humanitarian crisis.
The online sale runs until 30 November and all revenue from the sale will be donated to the non-profit organisation War Child UK that protects, advocates and stands up for the rights of children living through conflict across the world, from Afghanistan to Ukraine. Conceived by stylist, creative consultant and Dust Off co-founder Nancy Rohde after witnessing the effects of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Rohde said in a statement:
'It was in Berlin that I was confronted first-hand by the exodus of women and children fleeing Ukraine disembarking from trains and onto the platform. There were so many children who would be profoundly affected for the rest of their lives. It really was the saddest thing I have ever witnessed, and I felt a desperate need to help. We’ve been overwhelmed at the positive and generous response from the photographers, and we look forward to collectively being able to help the global humanitarian crisis via War Child.'
