A series of posters based on my thoughts of quarantine and COVID-19. For 'Coronapostas' the focus was on trying out new tools and techniques to better express my ideas in future.

The IKEA-styled poster is a satirical depiction of the difficulty to be productive and happy without the work-life balance of separate work and living spaces, or the stability of face-to-face guidance from tutors. The work shows me moving my furniture around (too many times), as a failed attempt to create a productive space.

At the time, lots of artworks were being made about the situation with the virus, which inspired my own works that help put into words what I was feeling: Social distancing and quarantine is hard, but we can do it 'together', and now is the time to help each other. This is why the second poster depicts all different types of people. It was also designed with only the materials and tools I had at-hand; paper, scissors, and my phone.

The next three pieces comment on the inadequacy of the two-metre social distancing rule, and its further reduction, in the context of research that says social distancing is not as effective until an around-eight metre distance is observed. The first of the three specifically criticises the ‘opening up the economy’ justification of the ‘one metre plus’ rule, as it would end up prolonging lockdown — social distance reduction for the price of a pint.
