COVID KIDS, a series of children’s portraits, 2020-2021
These kids are growing up aware of the dangers of illness; they grapple with their mortality, and the loneliness of isolation. Images of childhood in bright, sunny colors; usually playful and full of joy, these portraits show a different kind of reality. We don’t know what the long-term effects of the 2020 pandemic and quarantine will be, but we can clearly see it written in their eyes, from behind their safety masks.
