(Covid-19 Isolation, April 2020)
After two weeks of self-isolation that began in mid-March, I wanted to record with drawings my experiences of being confined at home that had become the extent of my world. I was reminded of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s illustrations in his beloved story, “The Little Prince”, where, before starting his interplanetary visits, the central character had lived and kept busy on his little planet. Hence, on my planet, this was how I spent my time in the lockdown. The illustrations were created using digital medium.
