The walled city, one of the pearls of the Caribbean and the main Colombian tourist showcase, has been facing for a couple of weeks the enormous challenge of containing the spread of covid-19. It does so in the midst of a fairly deep context of social and economic inequality, where approximately 30% of its population lives in poverty, with incomes of less than USD 66 a month and about 54% of its workers performing informal economic activities.
This makes the city a tide of contradictions between those who can fulfill the obligation to stay home and those who depend on daily work on the streets to survive.
In this photographic series that duality is narrated while some wonder "can I stay at home?". While many in the world can stop, protect themselves and their own avoiding social contact, many others are forced to keep walking.
The battle against the coronavirus is done on different fronts.
