Notes

"Rosin's current work is a tongue-in-cheek reflection on what can only be described as a really strange year indeed. 2020 will undoubtedly go down in history for obvious reasons, the question is how? So much has happened to change our World already that one wonders what's next?" –Stephen Rosin
