This series tells the story of the corona pandemic over 8 seasons. Spring 2020 Nature awakens as the danger of a virus lurks. Everyone is asked to stay in their cage. Cultural and social life comes to a standstill. When viewed superficially, the still lifes appear to be peaceful scenes. However, the images are full of symbols that refer to the coronavirus pandemic and the main events of the season.
