Getting out of lockdown

Getting out of lockdown


“Getting out of darkness”.
Leaving the corona madness behind. Towards the light of normal life.

А свет придет. Когда казалось бы – и неоткуда ждать.
Придет из темноты. Куда – и заглянуть боялся.
И улыбнешься ты. Когда казалось бы – хотелось с темнотой обняться.

 

Covid-19 lockdown

A morning walk during Covid-19 lockdown.

Монолог от третьего лица:

“Мой страх сильней.
Меня хватает лишь на то чтоб Солнцу показаться.
Да, я боюсь.
В толпе людей без маски оказаться.
Нас запугали.
Так, что скоро от меня останется лишь тень…

Сегодня я пошел против потока.
Лжи, недоговорок, пустобрехов.
Я вышел улыбнуться Солнцу.
Оставив страх в корзине грязного белья.
Я человек. Не мальчик для битья.”

Social distancing

“Social distancing”

I have been missing you, Barcelona

“I have been missing you, my city.”

Seeing Barcelona again, after weeks of lockdown. 

You never know when your bullet will come

You do not know when your bullet will come, and where it will come from.
Hence, there is no point of being afraid of something that may never happen.

We are afraid of many things.
Sometimes without any reason.
It makes us run away.
And puts entire life on freezing.

“Hoping for the best”

Barcelona, Phase 0 of Covid-19 lockdown. Day 65 of confinement

It is a fragment of a design structure. I wish I knew the name of the designer so I could mention their name.

Barcelona moved to Phase 1

“The green light”.

25th May 2020. Barcelona moved into Phase 1 of getting out of quarantine.

Restaurants are closed in lockdown

“Non stop kitchen” turned into “No kitchen”. Full stop.

Lockdown dreams

“Lockdown dreams”.

To all couples who are separated due to lockdown and have to wait, to see each other.

You know. Sometimes I think. About you. The time we used to spend together.
A glass of wine. Small talk. Nice food. Your lovely eyes. In front of mine.
And thanks to the confinement time, I started thinking more. About US…

The painting is a print on a cafe window in Barcelona.
I just played with the way the sunrise was lighting it up to create the silhouettes.

“Lockdown dreams” – to all couples who are separated due to lockdown and have to wait, to see each other.

Same text as for the color version (above).

The lovely morning hours…
When everyone is still asleep,
You come across some magic on the streets.

“Uncertainty”. Shall we go or shall we wait?

The lockdown seems to have changed some people’ behavior. Some walk without a mask feeling like a brave hero. Others became more cautious. Do you also feel the change?

Covid-19 lockdown

Barcelona, I want you to come back to life.
Seeing abandoned dirty cars is like seeing a man who stopped taking care and did not shave for weeks.

“A crying house”.

Barcelona under Covid-19 lockdown. Let us go for a walk…”

“Office life”.
How the office life would look like after the lockdown?
With many people working from home, do you think the number of love affairs at work will go down?

Covid-19 lockdown

I keep my Soul half way open.
It’s closed for the passers-by.
It’s open for the ones I love.

Freedom vs lockdown.

“Where is your mask??”

“Cornered”.

Covid-19 lockdown

For how long the masks will stick with us?

В переносном смысле: Как долго мы будем “привязаны” к маскам?
В прямом: как долго маски будут привязаны к нам?

I wonder who came up with this term and is trying to convince us that this is “normal”?

Lockdown lifehack for men 😜

“Take me to a restaurant!”
“Sorry dear, all restaurants have been closed for three months”
“Why??”
“Lockdown, dear”.

“Postres” in Spanish means “desserts”.
