shelter from the storm.
While a primary motivation of my photography is to capture new perspectives of familiar or overlooked spaces, the purpose of my pandemic photographs was the opposite. I wanted to explore how life changed as we were submerged into self-isolation and physical and social distancing, and how we occupy spaces differently to avoid spread of the coronavirus. If anything, it was a hobby to exercise some manner of control over an uncontrollable situation.
Some days, it was impossible to participate in it; I needed to tune out the constant coronavirus conversations. (Working in healthcare adds extra layers of pandemic talk.) As time has soldiered on, though, I realize that the purposeful photography of a strange situation was now merely documentation of what life now was like.
Who knows what my photo roll will look like in 2021?
