SILENT CITIES
LOOSENART GALLERY
OCTOBER 2020
Urban Sceneries that, until recently, we would have found unusual. Today they appear as common fragments we are accustomed to. An explanation capable of highlighting the sudden change of perspective we are experiencing in our lives and in the whole world.
RE: Confinement and Escapism
This collection is envisaged as a reply all email, or an open letter in response to the COVID-19 outbreak in terms of the personal, economic, environmental, social and observational commentary expressed. It also relates to confinement, and reconfinement, as the most widely adopted measure used to control the virus, and our digital escapism from the isolation of the physical world. The experiences of a pandemic localised to the region of Andalusia are explored, which along with the rest of Spain, was greatly affected by and imposed some of the strongest restrictions in response to the global pandemic.
