When Evan Gershkovich, an American journalist for The Wall Street Journal, was unjustly detained by Russia, we lost a son, friend, and colleague; the public lost his influential reporting. So, on the one-year mark of his detainment, we created “Missing Articles,” a visual representation of Evan’s missing journalism, placed where his words should have been in The Wall Street Journal's editorial space. Using blank spaces that adhered to The Journal’s guidelines and surrounded by real news, we highlighted the stories Evan should have written, but were now missing, leaving a void of information among the daily news organically placed throughout the newspaper edition. For the first time in its 134-year history, one of the world’s most important information sources went blank. On March 29, 2024, the biggest story in the world was no story at all. “Missing Articles” became a topic of conversation across social media, publications, and news broadcasts worldwide. In an unrelenting news cycle, calls for his release were louder than ever, and public pressure was enormous on the United States Government. On August 1st, 2024, the United States Government reached terms with Russia and brought Evan back home. His story is no longer missing.
