Detail of an emprisoned bird outside the Museum to the Holodomor victims of the 1932-1933 famine in Kiev, Ukraine
The Holodomor (literal translation Death by hunger) was a man-made famine in the Ukrainian SSR, part of the Soviet famine of 1932–1933. During the famine, which is also known as the "terror-famine in Ukraine" and "famine-genocide in Ukraine", millions of Ukrainians died of starvation in a peacetime catastrophe unprecedented in the history of Ukraine. This bird symbolizes the millions of people that died during the 1932-1933 famine as it wants to spread its wings and fly away, but can't as it is imprisoned just like the Ukrainian people wanted to live, but couldn't as there was no food.
