Although this work began with an entirely different concept in mind, it morphed into a response to the unfolding events of early 2020. There was a worldwide sense of knowing that things were changing in an unprecedented way and that life as we knew it was fast disappearing . This work captures a sense of loss of something treasured whilst still holding on to a sense of hope for its return.
