Why I Spend Hours Sketching in Conflict Zones – George Butler

Illustrator and TED Fellow George Butler reports on the ground from conflict zones, climate hotspots and humanitarian crises, using pen, ink and watercolors to highlight personal stories of perseverance. By slowing down and going deeper than the headlines, his humanistic approach is shifting how we think about the news. (Recorded at TED Fellows Films 2025 on April 7, 2025)
