Like many of us, professional photographer Jemima Yong is investing a great deal of time inside due to the restrictions brought on by the spread of coronavirus. However she has actually been drawn to document a little piece of land outside her London house. Here, Yong discusses her work, entitled Field 2020.

” Throughout the lockdown, I have actually been working from house at a desk by the window where the sunshine comes in.
” I can’t assist but see every now and then what is going on exterior.
” From here, I can see a green where some invest their precious outdoor hour – exercising, walking their canines, or merely playing – except by themselves or in small groups because of social distancing. It is within this brand-new distance that a story of uniformity can be read.

” I am drawn to the methods in which pictures can catch the intangible – relationships, environment, the essence of things.

” As I made more photographs, a visual pattern began to emerge of individuals alone together, energetic and active because of or – in spite of – their privacy.

” The green is not big, yet individuals have actually been considerate of each other’s broadened individual area.
” In a dense city like London, it is hopeful to see my neighborhood able to share a scarce resource in a sort of unspoken uniformity: a portrait of a cumulative adapting to a brand-new normality.”
