As we navigate the unique challenges presented as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a focus on community - even if at a distance - has never been more important. The SELF ISOLATION mini-series will stand as testament to the strange times ahead, delivering an interwoven tapestry of how the UrlfreezeShops community are navigating the uncertainty and maintaining their productivity at home as we work together to flatten the curve.
A multi-hyphenate of his own creation, Tom Winslade is never not working. From creating his docufilm series IN___SIGHT to partnering with friend and collaborator Reese Cooper on his recent DIY chore coat tutorial, Tom and his agency GOOD STUDIO are no strangers to the work from home grind.
Living out lockdown at home in London, Tom continues the Self Isolation mini-series with a set of at-home portraits detailing his responses to the UrlfreezeShops self-iso survey.
Self Isolation Uniform?
"Nylon cargo shorts and a cropped flannel shirt, both from Reese Cooper's SS20 collection – and a Noah baseball cap to hide the quarantine hair."
Self Isolation Soundtrack?
Self Isolation Motivation Mantra?
"I have ‘Persevere & Overcome’ tattooed on my arm in reference to a track from this hardcore band called Reign Supreme. It’s my forever mantra, but it seems especially fitting right now."
Self Isolation Creative toolkit?
"Thankfully, I have my entire set-up at home as I’m used to working from here. If I were to strip it back – my Mac, some Uni-Pin pens, a stack of paper, a printer and a scanner is all I need to keep it pushing."
Self Isolation Entertainment?
"The Last Dance has me hooked right now, likewise Westworld Season 3. I’m eagerly awaiting a new batch of Terrace House episodes to hit Netflix, too."
Self Isolation Reading List?
"Recently finished Eleven Rings, which I’d highly recommend to anyone watching the Michael Jordan doc. Also on the list, Ride Of A Lifetime, Talking To Strangers, Ways of Seeing & Ways of Curating."
Self Isolation Workout?
"I got back into running since we went into lockdown and it’s now a key fixture in my daily routine. The Nike Running Club app is a blessing."
Self Isolation Essential?
"Having some time to organise my illustration works and other creative projects ready to launch my new TW Archive."
Self Isolation Sneaker Rotation?
Self Isolation Passion Project?
"Our ongoing IN___SIGHT documentary series. We still have a couple of episodes we recorded pre-lockdown to share, which I’m super excited about."
