20 seconds | lorellerau

My recent series, 20 Seconds, describes my reality during the Covid19 pandemic as obscure and contradicting. This series began as an exploration of a simple shape that pervaded our culture. It later alluded to canceled events and missed opportunities, throughout which I came to understand my privileged existence. Unburdened by social and financial responsibilities, not much changed in my daily routine, yet the lack of accessibility and freedom was confining. For my this experience was a matter of inconvenience; for others it was life and death.
