Thoughts

Between a life we lived until a recent past, that is moving further away every day, and the life that we wish to live in a future that is harder to visualize every day. Between the need for isolation to avoid infection and the need for contact to accompany each other through fear. Between the first and immediate reaction to search for individual ways to take care of oneself and the subsequent understanding that it is impossible to find a way out without collective care, we are living in the transition. We are living between one thing or the other but in neither. We are living in between.

In times of coronavirus life in between becomes clearer, more defined, more definitive. And so, the consciousness of what is transitory, ungraspable, incontrollable, what we no longer have and what we do not have yet, is more demanding. It forces us to find, create, discover, invent, new compasses to navigate through a landscape with no margins to clearly mark the possible from the avoidable, the unavoidable from stubbornness, confidence from carelessness.
