An umbrella ‘sculpture’ is displayed in the Admiralty district of Hong Kong on October 1, 2014 at a gathering of pro-democracy protestors. Hong Kong has been plunged into the worst political crisis since its 1997 handover as pro-democracy activists take over the streets following China’s refusal to grant citizens full universal suffrage.
