"Come the end of this whole experience I've had a few people I know who have died because they were vulnerable. They were put in positions where one friend was really poorly, ended up in hospital, even then he tested negative with Covid when he went in within two days he had been put on a Covid ward, got covid and died." - Debbie.Lockdown Stories 2020 - under the first lockdown in the spring of 2020 I created a series of 150 portraits, that depicted a selection of essential workers and residents mainly confined indoors in and around Folkestone, Kent.You can view a selection of portraits from this project on this link: https://zakwaters.com/Lockdown (Best viewed from a computer.)These audio recordings are an ongoing documentation of the residents and workers I photographed. In 2022, I asked them to reflect on their own lockdown 2020 experiences and tell me their story.Thank you to Develop Your Creative Practice (DYCP) and The Arts Council England for supporting this project.The Arts Council: https://www.artscouncil.org.uk/DYCP: https://www.artscouncil.org.uk/dycpAll Rights Reserved Zak Waters: https://zakwaters.com/ (Best viewed from a computer.)Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zakrwaters/X: https://twitter.com/ZakWatersX: https://twitter.com/Camerasnaps​Equipment: Tascam PortacaptureRode NTG4 MicrophonePG2 pistol grip and shock mount#lockdown2020 #artscouncil #covid19 #photography #portraitphotography #zakwaters #camera #folkestone #holdstill #photos #dycp #photographs #audio #audiostories #kent #uk #england #nhs
