Have you ever heard the saying, “laughter is the best medicine”?

While we may not know who originally came up with it, one thing’s for sure: they were absolutely right.

Laughter and humor have a remarkable ability to help us navigate life’s toughest challenges.

That’s why Irina Blok, a talented graphic designer and artist, took it upon herself to create a delightful series of “before and after” illustrations, capturing how our everyday lives have been transformed by the Covid-19 pandemic.

These illustrations cleverly highlight the ways in which our experiences have become surprisingly similar.

By adding a humorous twist to seemingly mundane details, Irina brings a sense of lightheartedness to our “new normal” existence.

It’s incredible to realize that staying indoors and maintaining distance from others has brought us closer together through shared experiences. It’s a comforting thought indeed!
