Religion continues to play a significant role in shaping societies and public opinion, even among those who don’t follow a particular faith.
I captured this photo of a religious woman in Kyiv during the declaration of independence of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
A few days later, a major Russian news outlet used the same image to claim that the Ukrainian church had ceased to exist.
It’s a small example of how symbols and narratives are often caught in the middle of larger political and cultural disputes.

It’s horrible what these cults have done and still do.
