COVID-19 and Paranoia
We know that there is a terrible disease that has killed thousands of people around the world. Nowadays when would we imagine that something like that could happen? We were so safe inside our own bubbles that we couldn't imagine it. Well, what happened and now? With so many numbers of infected and dead, we are facing another pandemic: FEAR! And it is not for less that people feel cornered, desperate with the idea of dying, of losing family and friends, of being without work and not having money to survive and even loneliness in social isolation! And it was in this context that I took some photos that in my point of view reflects this “paranoia”.
