About my collection
My collection titled "Art and Humor During a Pandemic" focuses on how artists utilize humor to cope with the challenges caused by COVID-19. The artists featured—Huda Fahmy, Sailesh Gopalan, and Lela Lee—come from different backgrounds, but each processed the COVID-19 outbreak through a similar use of humor. One can see a visible departure from these artist's pre-pandemic content and the content they produced from March to May. Ultimately, the work of these artists helped me process the changes caused by the pandemic as well.
Also check out articles related to the pandemic which I've chosen to archive here.
