I've been walking around my neighborhood Bernal Heights every day since San Francisco announced Shelter in Place in March. It's been my daily meditation; I've set out with no direction or purpose, seeing where my feet take me and what grabs my eye.

I started photographing signs of my neighbors (despite their physical absence) as well as my neighborhood's quirks and magic before discovering parallels between my neighbors.

Even in our uniqueness, we reflect each other.
