It may sound incongruous that photography and agoraphobia go hand in hand. The image is associated with exploration and the search for snapshots that others are not able to see and; we believe it is inconceivable that without leaving a room it can be done. Jacqui Kennedy is a photographer and agoraphobic, but since 2006 she has been traveling the world. Google Street View is her passport to reach the most unusual places on earth and photograph them.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Google<\/p>\n

The trip that Kennedy has made during these years would have cost thousands of euros, but this itinerary has been at zero cost and under the comfort of her sofa. Google Street View<\/strong><\/a>‘s street-level panoramic view has allowed her to jump from one point to another enjoying wonderful landscapes and scenery.<\/p>\n

The British are anxious<\/strong><\/a> about large, crowded outdoor spaces. The fear she suffers prevents her from leaving or moving too far from her comfort zone, her home. So getting on a plane or feeling far from her refuge is impossible for Jacqui. Still, she hasn’t lost interest in what’s going on beyond her borders. She was drawn to the possibilities the seeker offered. A 360-degree<\/strong> perspective, a paralyzed reality, but safe in the photographer’s eyes.<\/p>\n

A photograph of a photograph<\/strong>, that’s how you could describe Kennedy’s work. Google Street View is a game of rewards, “seek and you shall find”. After viewing the selected panoramas in your Instagram @streetview.portraits<\/strong><\/a> account, you’ll want to keep looking for these hidden treasures. Now that, the idea of traveling due to the pandemic has become almost impossible.<\/p>\n
