In March 2020, the world stood still. I remember sitting in my apartment in Vienna, watching the news roll in — cities shutting down, borders closing, planes grounded. The silence was deafening. Like so many others, I felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness. My calendar, once packed with photography assignments and travel plans, was suddenly blank.
