Fatherhood: Running Away

Another illustration from a project about fathers’ experiences of lockdown with Alright Mate CIC.

Inspiration

This illustration explores the idea of ambivalence towards being trapped inside your home with your family during lockdown, and using exercise - specifically running - as a way of getting some personal space and distance. The person in this image is using running as a way of regaining their sense of self and separateness - sometimes a lack of personal space can be frightening and demanding.

Method
