Capri blue / Traffic yellow

The sense of national identity and patriotism is never stronger than when countries are at war with each other.

The sense of national identity and patriotism is never stronger than when countries are at war with each other. After The Ukrainian revolution of 2014 followed by the occupation of the eastern part of Ukraine by Russia patriotic fervour started to grow. People in Kiev and other cities painted certain objects of the cityscape in colours of the Ukrainian flag, thereby emphasising national identity. Capri blue and traffic yellow are the actual colours of the flag of Ukraine according to the RAL colour matching system. For me, documenting this phenomenon is a way to draw attention to the political and economic crisis in Ukraine, which now is not highlighted in the western media anymore.
