#isolationartviews is a series that captures the days of isolation in 2020 through photos, words, and short videos.It began as a project on Instagram (@1andyash) to record the view from their home windows every day during the first lockdown imposed by the UK government due to the new coronavirus.The intention was to capture the daily life and daily routine of that time.By recording every little thing around me, I tried to discover what was unimportant or meaningless.He uses newly coined words such as ``infra-ordinary'' to describe everyday life, which is neither ordinary nor abnormal, ordinary nor unusual.

#isolationartviews contains a series of photographic stills, pieces of text and a short film which captures the artists time of quarantine in 2020. The project started as an Instagram project (@1andyash) in which the artist documented a view from their window each day during the first government mandated coronavirus lockdown in the UK. The intension was to capture the everydayness and daily routines. Through meticulous recording of everything and anything in their immediate surroundings they set out to uncover the unimportant and insignificant. He uses neologisms like 'infra-ordinary ' to describe an everyday that is neither ordinary or extraordinary, neither banal nor exotic.
