SIX FEET
Context: SIX FEET is a submission-based photo book curated at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, capturing the shared isolation and quiet resilience during its early months. Created through an open call on social media, the project brought together photographers documenting their experiences of the unknown to create connection and togetherness.
The title nods to the 6-foot social distancing rule—repeated six times on the cover like the monotony of passing days. Warped typography and window imagery reflect the disorientation of that time.
