Saatchi & Saatchi Ukraine creative director Kosta Schneider looks back on a stunt for KyivPride that redefined the controversial symbolism of Europe’s tallest statue
Decades of Soviet rule still cast a shadow over countries like Ukraine, a country with some of the highest levels of homophobia in Europe. In that context, KyivPride is a particularly vital activist event, where thousands of people gather to support human rights and stand up to intolerance (as well as those who oppose those rights).

Online activism often involves only LGBTQ+ activists, while offline Pride events are a moment of visibility for a wide audience.
