The context of this portfolio is the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in 2020/21. The series functions as a personal visual diary of the artist and at the same time as a documentation of collective experience with the often contradictory official regulations throughout Switzerland, not without recognizing humorous moments within the absurd scenario. Immediately after production, the self-commissioned project was exhibited at the Museum für Gestaltung in Zurich.
