"Poltava, Ukraine. Tanya, 29, a sex-worker and drug user who has HIV. She has an 11 year old son and lives with 5 other sex-workers in a small apartment in a poor neighbourhood. She used to weight 100 KG but has wasted away to nothing. She has severe septicemia on her legs and a rampant addiction. Tanya tells that sometimes in the past wealthy men would seek her out for sex as part of a bizarre ‘Russian roulette with AIDS scenario, where they would have unprotected sex and dice with the odds of contracting HIV. Tanya died one month after this photograph was taken."
