Project type: Seminarprojekt
Created during the first lock-down phase of the pandemic COVID-19, during the international seminar remotely organised by the Academy of Media Arts Cologne. XiaoMeng Ma is walking.outside at midnight, because she prefers to avoid meeting people as the pandemic COVID-19 just reached its peak. While she is talking in her phone she approaches some fish tanks and the voices of the frogs become louder. Like the virus and the ""normality"" we now lack, the frogs can’t be cought and always slip away..
