Collection: series 'shanghai spring22'
A big city in lockdown, endless days of waiting, one like the other...
The repetition and uniformity of the image's content represents these long days, a situation that has troubled me. The marks could stand for these lockdown days, but also for windows in a skyscraper facade, or strokes that a prisoner makes on his cell wall in order not to get lost in the flow of time.
I have consciously held back in the color scheme and the materials to symbolize the renunciation and loss of the people.
