Kris Ruhs
Diary of a confinement
Drawings from March 7th to September 9th, 2020
This diary is a mean of communication. The drawings done during self isolation are my communication in a world of new communication. Every day is another emotion. And the drawings are a reflection of my feelings. It’s always a process. The day’s drawing reflects my mood towards that day. And sometimes what I actually feel and see. Kris Ruhs
