In May 26, I travelled to Blatten on assignment for WOZ, one year after the devastating landslide that buried large parts of the village. Triggered by instability in the mountain above and linked to the thawing of Alpine permafrost, millions of cubic metres of rock and debris crashed into the valley. A year later, the consequences are still being felt by former residents and the wider region.

ONES TO WACH 2026 / BRITISH JOURNAL OF PHOTOGRAPY
Now in its 15th edition, Ones to Watch is BJP's annual selection of emerging photographers who embody the talent and creativity in international photography today, nominated by a global network of curators, editors and artists.
Depicting war or the effects of migration; exploring heritage from more than one country, or histories of dominance and imperialism – many of this year's Ones to Watch broach weighty topics, but they still find moments of joy. From straight documentary to working with illustration and sculpture, this international cohort also puts photography through its paces, playing with the possibilities of the expanded medium while speaking with distinctive voices.
Meet the photographers:
Timon Benson | Moayed Abu Ammouna | Kincső Bede |
Nathalie Bissig | Fabiola Cedillo | Hubert Marot | Dev Dhunsi |
Kristina Podobed | Zexuan Zeng | Osheen Harruthoonyan |
