In Epicenter of Covid 19

Since World War II we have not encountered any other important events affecting the whole world so much.The first images from China were terrible. We watched like watching movies from afar.Then we all became actors of this vague and dystopic science fiction movie and we got into it. The countries closed their borders,the economy was hit hard, people became unable to leave their homes.Strangely,everything in the world changed suddenly because of a virus. The biggest difficulty was experienced in hospitals without any doubt.

I love being close to events and people that interest me as characters. For this reason, while I want to photograph Covid19, it is not for me to photograph from a distance, as I usually see.If I was going to shoot, I had to get into the closest.This was much more difficult because it would both activate the permitting process from all patients and pull me to the heart of the risk, but it had to be tried.

I believe that" I can't change history but I can show it".
