How Do You Know?
The themes of my creativity during the pandemic were domestic spaces and objects, revisiting unresolved works, and protest. During COVID-19, I spent much of my time when I was not at work producing works at home for my artist-in-residence group exhibition in October of 2020.
"How Do You Know?" is a collaboration piece that one of my fellow artists-in-residence at the time made for our exhibition. I crocheted the corona viruses, and my cohort member turned the wooden bowl and balls, and wrote a poem that accompanied it in exhibition.
