As I was Dying brings together Paolo Pellegrin’s remarkable and moving images of human suffering within areas of conflict and war. Pellegrin captures both the horror and despair of war, and his photographs convey the powerlessness of those who are victim to it, as they witness the destruction of their homes and the death of their loved ones. These are forceful and unforgetable images that resonate in the memory and give voice to the unbearable suffering of so many people.
