Sniper Alley Photo

The aim of Sniper Alley Photo project is to find, identify and archive photos taken in Sarajevo – Bosnia, during the war from the period 1992 – 1996. A period of 3 years, 10 months, 3 weeks and 3 days to be exact.

We will document the war from people who experienced it first-hand and from photographers who covered it. 

We would like to acknowledge and credit the brave and courageous photographers who lived the war together with us and bore witness to our suffering. Some of whom tragically lost their lives in the process.

We would like to give them a place in our history. 

This project will honour our unsung heroes, those brave men and women who risked their lives to tell our stories, whose lenses opened a window onto our world so that humanity could see what was happening to us and bear witness to a tragedy unfolding.
