This period brings ideas into surface, raises questions and debates about our healthcare and economic systems, ecological, political and social issues.

Today we are sharing this art piece “Claustrophobia” made by an artist and photographer Philippe Alliel.

“Things are very strange, some happiness to see the sky without planes, to hear the songs of the birds in this spring time.

And in the other hand, the sadness of being far from my family.

Sad of all those dead humans, happy so see that we can do better, and we have to do it better.”
-Philippe Alliel
