My submission for the ‘In Memoriam’ postcard exhibition, was a series of four artworks comprised of drawings that reflect my emotional state during the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent quarantine. These range from a general state of mind to an expression of ym personal experience navigating through the pandemic.
The watercolour piece titled “Lilies, Solidagos and Lisianthus” was made to honour the memory of those who have passed during the covid-19 with flowers that represent gratitude, mourning and peace. The work titled “Rebirth” features robin birds in branches, symbolising hope and the beginning of something new.
The work titled “Grief”, showcases a ribcage with thorns, a raven, flowers and a snake entangled within it, as an expression of my negative emotional state and pressure I felt during the early stages of the pandemic. And lastly, the work titled “Let Go”, showcases the need to release negativity by allowing it to flow out of my mind.
