'A Lens on Syria'
The Pulitzer award-winning photojournalist Sergey Ponomarev has travelled to Syria since 2013 to capture the unfolding crisis unleashed by the civil war. He has documented the devastation and changes in the country, as well as following the families who have fled the violence to find sanctuary in Europe. His exhibition 'A Lens on Syria', which is on display at London's Imperial War Museum, shows these different stories. He spoke to Dan Damon about how he has seen the Syrian refugee crisis change.
