VENICE UNDER COVID 2020

Daily city life has changed dramatically in 2020. Now it is no longer the human being shaping life and society, but a virus. Venice was massively shaken by the pandemic and yet got the unexpected opportunity to show a completely new face. Without mass tourism alongside environmental destruction, Venice was able to show its real beauty again for a certain time. 

​

So for me, there were not only negative sides to this pandemic, but it gave us the unique opportunity to see and experience what happens when we can no longer move around as usual. So I enjoyed the privilege of being able to experience and portray such a famous city with almost no people. And also to see what impressive things people can create and then almost destroy again in a short space of time.
