entry description
"Corona Botanics" series was made during the strict lockdown in Poland. I combined everyday objects (and those connected with COVID-19 pandemic) from my home with garden flowers.My idea was to use this configuration as a metaphor for coping mechanisms. I mainly based on the positive aspect of emotion-focused coping, which is what plants stand for in this project. Optimism, humor, gratefulness, and kindness - have become crucial for maintaining good mental health in a world of restraints and restrictions.about the photographer
