A set of selected photographs of different protest signs used during the first wave of protests (January–February, 2017). This set was constructed by collecting photographs of protests from online archives assembled by local bloggers and news media (e.g. https://www.lozinici.ro, http://www.ziare.com, and http://www.artofprotest.ro) and from Instagram, by harvesting images posted with one of the popular hashtags during these events (e.g. #altaintrebare, #coruptiaucide, #neamsaturat, #romaniatrezeste, #romaniainstrada).
