Los Angeles Pandemic Life
By B. Merriweather | October 4, 2020
Los Angeles has experienced a vivid shift in daily life since the beginning of the pandemic. Bars and restaurants are operating at limited capacity, small businesses are shuttering, and social lives have been curtailed. I am attempting to take portraits of people from all over the city’s diverse neighborhoods to illustrate how life has changed for Los Angelenos during the COVID-19 pandemic.
