Item description
Pictured in black and white from the shoulders up, a healthcare worker looks in the distance. Soft light illuminates the top of her face, highlighting her eyes and contrasting with the black COVID mask she is wearing that throws the rest of her face into shadow. She is wearing a white turtleneck. The background is dark and out of focus with a bright spot in the center.

Healthcare is Human 5

I am uploading photographs I captured during the pandemic. The series is called Healthcare is Human. During lockdown, my friend who is a doctor called me and told me about an idea he had. He wanted to go into the hospital and talk to all of the workers about their experience working during the pandemic. He would voice record interviews with them and I would capture images. When Dr. McCarthy brought this idea I was so excited and ready to collaborate! Together, we created an audio and video record of our local pandemic response in West Virginia. To date, we have the audio for twenty podcast episodes and I have taken over 500 photos.
