6 Feet Closer

CONTEXT
We’ve been told to practice social distancing during a global pandemic. During my many quiet moments of isolation, I started to think about a life where we had to stay 6 feet apart forever. Although we would still be able to interact vocally and gesturally, we would miss out on physical interactions that could easily replace a string of well crafted words.

CONCEPT
6 Feet Closer visualizes what we are lacking and in need of - shared physical moments. High fives, hugs, pinky promises, and secret handshakes are just a handful of simple, yet meaningful, interactions that are explored in this celebratory piece.

This is my contribution in creating something uplifting and positive in times of change.

 
 

Concept + Process

The visual direction can be described as a “deconstructed zoom call” — my main source for communicating during social distancing

Graphic elements and typography also create a sense
of distancing through movement
