For photographers, used to training their lenses on people and places the world over, isolation proves a particular challenge. As part of #CultureIsNotCancelled – a campaign on AnOthermag.com championing culture in the age of social distancing – we have invited photographers to send us an image each week for a project titled The Self-Isolation Photographic Diaries, making up a unique and intimate portrait of life under lockdown.

Paul Phung

“Currently I’m in Paris during this lockdown, I think this is the fifth week now and I’m becoming more settled as the weeks go by staying at home. This week I’ve been reflecting over my work and I’ve noticed in the past year I have always waited for opportunities to create where as before I made work purely for the enjoyment of creating. This week’s photo is myself continuing unfinished personal projects and remembering the thought processes.”

Lorena Lohr

“I guess a lot of people are spending a lot more time in front of the sink than normal ... Here’s one with a cowboy from Wyoming.”

Laura Coulson

“Rosie, co-isolating. Keeping me sane.”
