This series explores the resentment, confusion, helplessness, fragility, and anxiety we have experienced during this time of self-isolation, specifically in the first few months of the pandemic. Our sleep has suffered, our mental state is deteriorating, our pride is swallowed, and we are mourning the loss of our loved ones and clinging to nostalgia to get through. This theme hones in on other people's experiences, including mine, and feelings thus far into the lockdown as I try to express those stories visually. I've primarily used reds and neutrals for the color scheme as it places emphasis on the underlying tone in the world right now: there is something sinister lying beneath what we can see.
This series is also looking at the different manifestations that this virus and those feelings have taken on. Our minds have been clouded with questions of uncertainty. From the early stages of the infections spreading like wildfire to the rushed opening of the economy and defiance of stay-at-home orders, this series sheds light on the ugliest sides of society and the lack of humanity.
