Selfie with Lenin

It pretty hot in Ukraine in the Summer; as hot as it is cold in the winter. The only shade in Donetsk's Lenin Square, is in the shadow of the monumental statue of Lenin himself. You cannot sit there too long otherwise the police move you on but it was often the place where I met my assistant, translator, producer, all round super woman Yulya Shato during the IZOLYATSIA residency. I am thinking of all my great friends in Ukraine, the world is watching.
