Around mid-day Wednesday, Oleksandr Zheleznyak, a Ukrainian sculptor and Edvard Sargsyan, an Armenian scientist, brought and set up this candle that they had spent all night making. By early evening on Thursday, when I took this photograph, the column was surrounded by hundreds of candles and other items.
