The piece is a continuation of a series of work called Quarantined Bodies which I have been creating illustrations for since the COVID outbreak began.

With this series of work, I started by creating figures folded & twisted on themselves to convey the feeling of containment which came about from being in lockdown. 

As Tiarnán and I were working together on designing this piece we decided to make it about ourselves because we are iconic, parful and very, very humble. 

It is a self-portrait of us and our cat squashed onto the tiny sofa in our house, binging Netflix & is a lighthearted take on the intensity of being in lockdown with your other half.
