During the Covid-19 pandemic, artists are finding ways to document the experiences we are all going through.Feeling stressed and anxious, like most Americans, Los Angeles filmmaker, Andrew Putschoegl, is documenting “physical distancing” by taking portraits of the community to help others feel less alone.

“For me creating art and putting something out into the world that brings a little of joy - whenever the time, but certainly when times are tough - is a key element of who I am,” Putschoegl said.

He launched his series on Instagram called, “Together Apart,” and began cataloguing the realities of the pandemic by snapping shots of friends, friends of friends and eventually strangers.
