One of nine photographs from the series 'Field' by Jemima Yong, made during the first lockdown of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. Often working in theatre settings, photographer Jemima Yong chronicled the lockdown by documenting activity on the field outside her block of flats from the vantage point of her window. A creative response to her confinement, the almost abstract photographs employ a bird’s eye view to highlight the distance between the photographer and the outside world. By drawing attention to shapes, motions, and gestures they evoke a strong sense of performativity.
