Maidan is the name of the square in Kiev, Ukraine where the demonstrations against the corrupt government where held around the end of 2013. they protested against the corruption and the Russian grip on the country. Protests had been mostly peaceful but that escalated on February 20th. 100 people lost their lives when police and protesters started shooting at each other. What exactly happened isn't completely known, but the government says it's the police that opened fire. Shortly after this tragedy, the government fled and the city/ country belonged to the protesters. That is when these portraits where made. Each person also got two questions when their photo was taken. 'What would you like to see happening now?' and ' What do you think will happen?'. 100 photo's for the 100 people who lost their lives at Maydan.
