Abstract

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, social distance has been the main measure to protect us. We have had to remain in confinement, deepening the dynamics of socialization through social networks. Considering that physical spaces concentrate diverse meanings and representations, we direct our attention to the case of Instagram as an option that offers diverse spaces within the same social network. In this article we offer a reading of Instagram's spaces as everyday physical spaces. For this reason we focus on the user profile, stories and lives (live broadcasting). Is it possible to equate physical spaces with digital spaces?
