Bits and Pieces 7

In Stockholm, the snow still covers the sidewalks. Vacant storefronts line up along the now-empty pedestrian streets, either closing for good or biding their time, waiting for a return to normality. Motor scooters with urgent food deliveries rip through the scene, otherwise it’s a city on hold… holding its breath until corona passes.

A pandemic doesn’t disrupt Akay and Olabo’s work though. Still it might reveal how their daily activities operate independent of a “functioning” economy and somewhat outside of society. When the rhythms of modern life come screeching to a halt, they’re still out on their bikes, looking for places to play.
