Abstract
This paper discusses the challenges of maintaining a photographic art practice without taking photographs. It considers this through ideas about parallel diasporas, their physical and digital definition as we know them, and the proposal of digitally-isolated space. In what follows, I address the question: how might all three definitions intersect through a common impulse to perform what Marianne Hirsch calls an “affiliative gaze”-but in COVID-19 space-time.
