Provided by the artist - Louie Palu Canadian soldiers search for roadside bombs (IED's) on a path as they question young men by a mud wall in the impoverished farming village of Chalgower in Panjwaii District, Kandahar, Afghanistan. Over the summer a brutal insurgency took hold in Chalgower and in the surrounding villages resulting in injury and death to numerous civilians, insurgents and soldiers without completely expelling the insurgents influence in the area.
"Void of War" is a series of panoramic photographs taken in Kandahar and Farah provinces with a plastic toy camera.
