The artworks were created during the Quarantine performance, which took place at the Oficyna Gallery in Poznań, run by Jakub Borkowicz. During the performance, which lasted 40 hours, the artist juggled balls dipped in paint, leaving marks in the space. The work consists of three framed drawings (100×70) and a video (5 min). Quarantine was created in consultation with Prof. Leszek Knaflewski at the Intermedia Studio IV – Audiosphere, University of the Arts Poznań.
