This graffiti was made in Pripyat town, which was the first town to be affected with radiation when Chernobyl accident happened.
A group of artists from Moscow, Minsk, Berlin went down there 20 years later to make a tribute to all those people who passed away and who are still suffering from the causes of this catastrophe.
People have different opinion on these artworks, should they be there or not. This ghost-town is like a huge graveyard, no sound but the wind comes from there. www.26-04-1986.com
