Kevin and Derek: In the Line of Fire

The Listening Project

Available for over a year

Two artists, one of whom was in the army… but it's the one who wasn't who got shot. No one knows how they will react to being shot at until it actually happens. Kevin was working as a photo-journalist covering the Bosian conflict in 1992, when he and a friend were shot at by a sniper and seriously injured. It had a profound affect on his life, and he's now recovering from PTSD living and working as an artist in West Cumbria. It's here that he met fellow artist and former Parachute Regiment officer Derek Eland, who has huge respect for his friend who has done something he hasn't done . . . .
