Almost 20 years ago, 24photography set out to document every hour of New Year's Day, every year, for 24 years. But during these unprecedented times, we have come together again, turning our attention and lenses to the Covid-19 pandemic, to document 24 hours on lockdown.
Scattered across the globe from London to Hong Kong to Western Australia, this shared view is taken over the course of one day: every image representing a reflection of this passage of humanity, a global community in collective isolation.
Each photograph, taken during the 24-hour project, encapsulates the stillness, uncertainty, and unexpected beauty found within confinement, serving as a testament to human resilience and adaptability.
These are some of the images I took in HK during the first weeks of our project.
