During the weeks of post-quarantine in March & April, I was still in my apartment in SF, it was so quiet in the city. But it was a peaceful time and I just purely made the collection on my own.
I really liked the isolation and it not only allowed me to dive into the craft, but also let me explore the main topic of the void in ways I hadn’t before.
