Communicating during Isolation4/5/2020 Inspired by Gillian Wearing's Project "Signs that say what you want them to say, not Signs that say what someone else wants them to say," I asked some friends of mine to write down what they were thinking about during a video call on "House Party," and screenshotted them holding their signs. I think project shows how connection and communication has changed due to Covid-19, but, perhaps, we haven't, as there was a range of responses, both serious and somewhat trivial. It was also interesting to recreate Wearing's project during this time as it shows how methods of Photography have had to change.

Surviving Through The Days Of Lockdown30/4/2020 My intention for this photo was to create an image which had reflected on the thoughts and feelings which people might be going through right now during this tragic time as the Uk is currently on lockdown. This means that people can’t see their loved ones as everyone has to self distance themselves. Hence, why I wanted include how the elderly people felt as they can’t see or embrace their loved ones as they are much vulnerable to get the virus. Therefore, it has led them to become isolated and lonely from the outside world where they feel trapped in their own homes. I felt like this photograph is a snap shot of how my life quickly turned from being a happy girl who was embracing the outside world into a girl who is trapped inside a small box filled with darkness and there’s little to no hope of escaping.
