Handwashing

Paul Barrios

I wanted to expose my uncertainties, fears and certainties around the situation of the pandemic. Seeing myself surrounded by so much information from the media and conspiracy theories from social networks. I wanted to explore by my own means and through a monologue all these concerns, putting them on the scale of doubt.

At this time no vaccine had yet been developed and there was a lot of uncertainty as to how we would get out of this situation through science and/or politics.
