COVID19 has brought about unusual terms such as social distancing which has flipped our lives upside down. Our inherent desire to socialize has been disrupted. Most of the public spaces were shut down with little sign of life and even if some are opening up, they are a pale shadow of what they were. My approach here is to dig deep into my image archives, photographs that I have made in recent past in social spaces where we all mingled and embraced each other, no masks sanitizers, no fear of contact.
