“Corona Diary I” gives a feeling about how the corona-pandemic starts in March 2020 and develops until August 2020 in Dortmund. The book has two levels - the documentary level with dates, places, names of portraied people on the left side of each doublepage and numbers of infected, recovered and died persons on the right side. 

The second level is a personal one with photos from my environment - my friends, my family, photos which explain the shifting situation through Covid. There is also vertical text, which explains situations on the pictures or tells stories of what happened to me. With this book I wanted to create a document of our time. 

The book was printed in the first edition like it was ordered - there will be a second edition someday. 

Stay healthy & tuned ;)
