Jonathan Alpeyrie
Jonathan Alpeyrie’s photojournalism career covering conflict spans over a decade, taking him to the Middle East, North Africa, the South Caucasus, Europe, North America and Central Asia. Jonathan started covering the war in Ukraine in 2014 where he was injured in a gun battle in Mariupol. In February 2022, Jonathan returned to Ukraine where he is creating some of the most vivid images from the battlefield.
Valentina Bilbao
Music is a central inspiration for Valentina Bilbao in creating her abstract paintings. Her process is to translate and decode music into artwork through collaborations with notable musicians. Form in her art symbolizes energy, cosmic creation and movement.
Ian Maksin
Breaking boundaries both musical and geographical, cellist, composer and multilingual vocalist Ian Maksin has created and developed his own unique genre by blending elements of different styles in a new way using his cello as a force for unity. On featuring Ukrainian singer-songwriter Sofi Fraser (https://youtu.be/8dzC0gCjjLc). The song is a tribute to the courage and resilience of the people of Ukraine.

Alana Sandel
Executives who worked with Alana at www.marketingforwellness.com call her innovative and thought-provoking for a reason, in her 20+ years of leadership across industries, she's pushed brands beyond what they thought possible. When she saw the invasion of the country where she was born, she brought together volunteers under https://www.forwellbeing.com to raise support for hyperlocal medical aid in Ukraine working with leading doctors on the ground. Alana finds inspiration in the vision of Oleksii Arestovych—Advisor to the Office of the President of Ukraine “that there is more goodness in humanity than there is evil.”
For WellBeing
