Description
Brothers, identical twins, sit together on a single bench. Despite their closeness, both physical and the bonds of blood and a lifetime of shared experiences, like many, they are now divided. COVID-19 and the issue of masking has driven a wedge between them.
That I know this to be a composite of two photos of the same man makes it no less compelling. It is, unfortunately, emblematic not only of the extreme difficulties the pandemic has brought with it but of the divisions throughout society. However, the inherent symbolism also emphasizes that, though we may differ - and differ strongly - on so many issues, we are yet united; at the core, we are but one.
