This series of work, ‘Domestic Isolation, was heavily how
I navigated the first lockdown. I think, now at least, many of us
have formed routines and ways of working through long periods
of isolation at home, but the creation of this work took place at
the very beginning, back when this was all new.
The pieces act as a diary, and at the same time explore
typical household objects within a new context, pulling together
the emotion and recontextualisation that the pandemic has
caused. At the time, these work allow my partner and I a space
to vent, to think, to reflect, and a direct outlet to put that all on
to. Now, once again navigating a lockdown, I often revisit these
piece - revisit our scrawls and thoughts and rants - and conclude
that now is not as bad as then. It pushes me forward.
