Intimacy

Intimacy

#covidcampus

In some ways we feel more separate as we all work and study from home, but in other ways we feel more connected. There is a strange intimacy to being able to see someone’s home in the background of video lecture or meeting. A voyeuristic peering into another life. I find myself distracted by wanting to know what books are on someone’s shelf, or the story behind the red dinosaur in my lecturer’s office, or admiring the healthy monstera delicousa of a classmate.
