Reimagine still life to visually document this unique moment in our isolation stories

These are unprecedented times we find ourselves in! Years in the future, how will we remember what it was like for us during this time? Who were we and how did we get through it? Inspired by photographic artists Hong Lei and Jo Whaley, we’ll reimagine the classical traditions of still life to visually document this unique moment in our own isolation stories.

Here are the materials:

  • A device to take pictures with (Camera, smart phone, or tablet)
  • A collection of objects that you are using every day during your quarantine
  • A tripod to hold your camera (optional)
  • A box or empty frame, string, and tape (optional)
