Ukraine - Women of the Maidan Photo Exhibition
On
April 4, 2014, Kyiv hosted Ukraine women's photo exhibition "Women of the
Maidan". The exhibition is an endeavor to fix and preserve non-edited and
non-corrected by politicians and historians the image of Ukrainian womanhood –
mothers, sisters, wives, daughters - who consciously and unselfishly protected
at Maidan the right of Ukrainian people for better life. Women went to Maidan together with men to stand for their
dignity and the right to live in honest European state, where everybody’s
rights are respected, diversity and equality are valued, democratic values and
freedoms are abided. By their active position, strong will and strive to
changes, without complaints and blames, by authentic heroism and self-discipline
women supported the spirit of the Maidan and gracefully, with belief in
victory, passed through all Maidan’s seconds-minutes-hours-days in the
crosshairs of sniper’s rifle”.
