Ukranium

I was in Kiev in the Ukraine in 1991 when it declared independence from the USSR, which had only months earlier opened its first branch of McDonalds. I dug out this article I’d written on my return. `looking at the negatives I brought back I’ve concluded I was never cut out to be a photojournalist. None of my pictures showed anything momentous, so instead I’ll post this print I made at the time based on Lenin’s rhetorical question, “Which shall prevail, socialism or barbarism?”
