Dr. Gusky’s photography in the exhibition is of stone carvings made by soldiers in underground quarters in the trenches. His exploration of the trenches and refuges over many years has created a record of previously lost or unknown soldiers’ experiences in WWI.
Check out Dr. Gusky’s work, along with many more incredible pieces, at the National Air and Space Museum. See the Smithsonian website, airandspace.si.edu, for more details.

Jeff GuskyDear Perry,
I just saw your 2019 message for the first time. Please forgive the delay 🙂
My family was originally from the part of present day Ukraine closer to Kiev.
