Ballarat International Foto Biennale is partnering with FORMAT International Photography Festival and Gallery of Photography Ireland to create a visual record of the COVID-19 crisis on Instagram.

Inspired by the 1937 Mass Observation project in Britain, Ballarat International Foto Biennale curators Shaohui Kwok and Amelia Saward invite Australians to share their photographs to build an online visual archive of this extraordinary moment in history.

2020 is becoming a hugely significant moment in time and Mass Isolation is an opportunity to find lightness, to share experiences and build our faith in humanity’s ability to survive.
