QUARANTINE
This is a tough time for everyone and I believe that we are affected by coronavirus in different aspects. For me, I have been self-quarantining for two weeks at home alone. And the thoughts and emotions that I gain from living, no matter positive or negative, get bigger and unignorable. Therefore, the theme of the project is to focus on the emotions I get from these few days.
I will mainly work with water in this series of photos, for being alone for a long time is like drowning into the water. No one is able to hear from you no matter what you say and do, and you can just barely hear sounds from the outside too. I will cast an object, the strawberry, which symbolizes everyone that gets stuck in home and has the same way I feel, cast into the water. And that I will catch the moment/process when the object is being cast. Both water and the object are like symbols here to reflect the emotions we get in this period.
