This piece includes three photographs showing the progress of a sunflower. The first, in the top left corner, is of dirt with a tiny, green sprout with two leaves. Directly under the sprout reads “15 APR 2021”. Underneath that photo is a photo of another plant. This one is a close-up photo of green leaves all circling towards the center in which there is a little bud. The top corner of this photograph reads “26 JUL 2021.” The final photo is a vertical photograph spanning the whole right side. It is of a sunflower, facing the camera, with a brick building in the background.

A photograph of a person reading in the bathtub. In the bottom half of the photo is the book. Towards the top of the photograph is the silver faucet with a pink loofah hanging off of it. In between the book and the faucet are bubbles. The middle of the photo reads “Quarantine zen” with an emoji of a person with a towel on their head.

A photograph of a baseboard with sunlight through a window shining on it. The sunlight is broken up by the frame of the window creating squares of sunlight on the ground and wall. The wall is painted white, but is severely chipping and cracking, leaving an odd texture to the wall. Directly below the baseboard is an exposed carpet tack strip. The floor is unfinished wood, with a visible and heavy coating of dust, concentrated where the wall meets the floor.

A close-up photograph of a flower. The flower has five white petals and a yellow center. The petals are leaning back, away from the center of the flower. The pistil sticks out and surrounding it are about a dozen stamen. On the petals, above the center of the flower is the shadow of a fern. The background is mostly black with a few splotches of green suggesting stems and leaves.
