1e Prijs Portretten – enkel – Tony Docekal – Chad Skid Row

Chad woke up on Skid Row in Los Angeles with his clothes stolen, so he decided to shine in pink. At the onset of the pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended that people living outdoors should be sheltered in one place because forcing them to relocate could lead to disease spread. They also advised shelters to decrease their capacity by 50% to ensure social distancing among residents. This resulted in massive street encampments that have spread from Skid Row to almost all parts of Los Angeles.
