Another view of war — Photojournalist Anastasia Vlasova has documented the conflict breaking her country apart since she was just seventeen. Here’s who she follows on Instagram.

Ukrainian photographer Anastasia Vlasova cut her teeth on the frontlines, covering her first protest when she was just seventeen. At twenty-two, she’s witnessed a revolution and the grief of war. She’s won international awards, is a 2015 Magnum Foundation Human Rights and Photography Fellow at NYU and is fast emerging as one of our generation’s most talented photojournalists.

In Huck’s Documentary Photography Special III, she revealed her personal experience of covering the Euromaidan protests and Ukraine’s descent into civil war. She explained it’s the people she met – and loved – along the way that have taught her lessons of a lifetime.
