This typology investigates the ubiquitous ground markers directing people standing in line to keep 6 feet apart to prevent the spread of COVID-19. These markers are often just a single piece of tape adhered to concrete and distressed from months of being stepped on.

This photographic method of collecting, sorting, and classifying is a reflection on the scientific processes employed to fight the pandemic. These analytical processes are visualized in grids, bar graphs, and other references to visual methods of displaying quantitative information.

The recurring theme of repetition also reflects the tedious nature of many of the life changes we have had to endure. Within these groupings, fresh insights emerge. The subtle differences reveal beautiful variations as the eye tunes into this minimal landscape.

Using a detached, documentary style offers an opportunity for viewers to reflect on the quiet moments as well as the irony of working together by staying apart.
