LOCKDOWN JOURNAL 2.0: Pippa Eason
And so we find ourself in lockdown territory again. The lights are on and everyone is home, winter 2019 has somehow morphed into winter 2020 with summer feeling like a mere simulacrum of happier times.
Having once reopened BasementArtsProject to small household groups / bubbles we have since had to close them again as household restrictions tighten.
Over the long summer months of lockdown we have adapted to a life online, switching to a programme of virtual presentations of new work, films, drawings, poetry, painting, poetry, photography and diary entries about life in, out and beyond lockdown. Now as we enter Lockdown 2 the sequel we relaunch our online presence with some images of new work by past BasementArtsProject exhibitor Pippa Eason.
