F.W.Paps: Quarantined

Department of Research Arts invited me to run a series of cartoons covering COVID lockdown in Moscow. Working against a fixed weekly deadline — like a classic newspaper cartoonist — was a huge pleasure and privilege.

I dispatched F.W.Paps into Moscow forests and underground art openings, got him to work as a food courier and of course to constantly zoom.

The series later became a part of State of Emergency exhibition at Triumph Gallery and Museum of Moscow. And here's the booklet.
