Corona Diaries by Marzena Skubatz

German photographer Marzena Skubatz lives and works in Germany and Iceland. Particularly interested in places’ identity and their meaning: outdoor and indoor landscapes and the « in between » space. From this research, she is naturally interested in remote and inaccessible spaces. She has decided to go to the North, where she takes pictures of people living in very distant places. By photographing their intimate life and their resistance, she questions the notion of “home”. Committed, it highlights these communities, particularly when facing ecological upheavals.

This approach is found in the last series she publishes, Corona Diaries. In the sanitary conditions and the current modifications of the habits of life of many countries in the world, Marzena delivers her testimony of her home, in Neukölln, densest district of Berlin. Here are her observations recorded on site like a diary during the pandemic.
