Coronavirus and Mask Wearing takes an everyday scene during the time of the Coronavirus 2020 quarantine and depicts the isolation and loneliness of daily life in the city. A child looks out the window, as another child hides under his mother's dress for protection. Garbage sits on the curb as the city's streets are abandoned and a biker rides by. The clouds that are cutout and collaged from Japanese Shizen Paper represent the weight of uncertainty.
