TITLE: Distorted reality.

Before the lockdown of Moscow because of the Covid-19, my daughter asked to take her to the forest, she wanted to walk before isolation.
She refused to wear a mask and gloves, replacing it with a Halloween astronaut costume.
In 2020, the age of technology and the victory over disease, my daughter must walk alone, in a deserted place, wearing a mask and gloves.
Surrealism and reality.

AUTHOR: Natalia Kharitonova (Russian Federation)

I was born in the Soviet Union (USSR), in a small village in Volgograd city.
I lived in Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, and the USA. Frequent changes of residence, travel, the birth of four children-all this inspired me to take up the camera. The main theme of my works is children, their emotions, feelings, and ordinary everyday life filled with childhood.
