Personal Project

A personal project regarding the idea of heat, while I was in Shanghai during the middle of the pandemic. My body heat will rise to defense against a virus, and yet under government surveillance, the irregularities in my body temperature will immediately be reported and I will be sent into mandatory quarantine, with all my personal information and address exposed to the entire nation for others to criticize, for being infected would be regarded almost as an act of treason. Meanwhile, burning the labels off a shipment ensures what little privacy I have left in a world of cameras and surveillance. How much does heat protect me? How much would it expose me?
