but do we need to do it all over again?
After revisiting previous working documentations, I place a blue sweater from my closet to the studio with the rocks. The blue sweater represents the ripples from the lake- how freely the lake flows and moves. The rocks are the boulders that I can barely get near to. These boulders would split the flow of the water, making the water scatter and flow in a different direction. This is in relation to physical distancing that is still currently in place. Although the policies are becoming less strict and bigger gatherings are taking place, there is this muscle memory within us that would make our bodies move a different direction when another person is approaching us. As for toilet paper… well, it has written its own story and will forever be one of the highlights of history when we look back on year 2020.

Studio work: Becoming the viewer of my own work, I become compelled to stop and linger longer. What will happen now? What is next? As there are talks of the coronavirus becoming a seasonal virus, what could we have learned from this season? How are we going to move forward? What else do we have to un-learn, re-learn, or even discuss further? Have we already moved on?
Seeing and hearing less talks about Covid-19 has given me mixed feelings. Numbers have dropped drastically, but there are still so many cases. What will happen next?
