Reflecting on the life of Camille Claudel through Rodin’s 1884 bronze bust of the artist, Selin Genc considers her own experience of isolation and celebrates her autonomy even in the midst of lockdown.
Extract: "Under the novel conditions of quarantine, new patterns of life and thought unfold. Routine and habit have taken on a new meaning, and movement is becoming increasingly ritualistic, increasingly an end in itself. Time stretches and shrivels. Some occurrences are amplified whereas others just blend into the continuous fabric of the day."
