As part of our #CultureIsNotCancelled campaign – which aims to champion creativity in the age of social distancing – we have launched a new series called The Self-Isolation Photographic Diaries, inviting a selection of photographers to send us an image each week, creating a unique documentation of life in lockdown.

“When seen at a certain moment in time, objects that might otherwise go unnoticed can speak in a language of their own. Here are some washing machines and dryers waiting around outside ... ”

Eddie Whelan

“Time is fluid.”

Dougie Irvine

“There’s a blackbird that lives in my garden now and started messing around by the mirror. Each week that passes more birds and wildlife seem to be coming into my garden. It’s pretty lovely to watch.”

Paul Phung

“A vital part of my work is collaboration, for the past few years I’ve been working closely with dancers on a personal project and for this week’s photo, I’ve tried to bring back that collaborative way of working with my first ever FaceTime shoot with my friend Oscar Li.”

Kuba Ryniewicz

“Essential shopping vs. essential shopping list, so what we managed to get and what we didn’t.”

Alexandra Leese

“Andy.”
