SEARCHING FOR CLOSURE

Over 15,000 people are still missing following the conflict that tore the former Yugoslavia apart in the 1990s. In a video below Nick Danziger, a photographer, narrates a slide show of his images that document the work of recovering and identifying bodies and the families who are still seeking answers. In these photographs of skeletons, morgues and memorabilia, Mr Danziger chronicles the sad slog of making sense of what is incomprehensible.

"Missing Lives", an exhibition of Mr Danziger's photographs, came about from a commission by the International Committee of the Red Cross, which has been working to trace missing men and women in the region since 1991. The show was in London in July, and goes on to Belgrade, Sarajevo, Pristina, Mostar, Strasbourg, Banja Luka, Brussels and Zagreb between August and November. In 2011 it moves to Switzerland, Canada and America. Dewi Lewis Publishing has also come out with an accompanying book of the same name.
