Queen
Mary University of London is putting on an exhibition of art and stories to
share people’s experience of the Covid-19 pandemic as part of Being Human
Festival. The theme for Being Human Festival 2020 is 'New Worlds'; this
exhibition aims to bring people together, to share people's experiences of
Covid-19, to understand how we can live in this new world with Covid-19.
The exhibition will feature visual art and creative writing that
represents people's experience of the Covid-19 pandemic. This is not exclusive
to the experience of having Covid-19 but may also include the social
implications, such as lockdown, social distancing, and wearing masks. We’re
looking for art that captures the varied experiences of Covid-19 in the hope of
bringing people together to share their experiences.
We are also interested in art that represents experiences of caring for people during the pandemic, which could be as a healthcare professional or as a friendly volunteer.
