Antibodies (The Arrival of Reinforcements)

Submitted by: Edward DeMarsh

Materials: Acrylics on canvas, bamboo skewers

I had returned from China late in 2019 with the intention of returning in early 2020. The arrival of covid dramatically changed both my career and personal plans. I painted this in March of 202o when the hope of vaccines was still a long way away, but the talk of antibodies as the means for defence was all the talk.
The work captures my ongoing hope that as went on we would discover a way to heal and strengthen. I have created a battle in the bloodstream between the virus and the antibodies that rally against them. The rigid yellow lines are bamboo skewers fixed to the canvas representing needles that were yet to come but needed. I look at it often and with the same hopes in mind.

A Mask on a Mask

Submitted by: maya

Materials: Felt material, sharpie, pipe cleaners, googly eyes, hot glue and a mask

I chose to do this design on my mask because the first thing I thought of when I think about covid-19 is masks and during this pandemic we’ve had to wear a mask almost everywhere we go to keep ourselves and others safe. When we first went into quarantine it was around spring time and there was lots of flowers outside so I put that design on the mask of the person.

Summer sky

Submitted by: Kdawg😈

Materials: Felt, paper, paint, feathers

I made this mask because it reminds me of the summer which is when the first lockdown was happening. I remember staying inside during COVID and not being able to see my friends because of the restrictions. It was weird not being able to leave my house much during the summer but I’m happy things are going back to normal.

Black, beads, & Buttons .

Submitted by: Anonymous

Materials: Beads, Fabric, Paint, feathers

This doesn’t have much of a story but, during quarantine I saw a lot of birds outside my window because I have a big tree that’s usually full of birds, so when I saw the feathers I thought it would be a great idea to add some of them to my mask for something to catch the eye

LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR STAY OVER THERE

Submitted by: ANONYMOUS

Materials: Felt glue and fabric paint

I made this mask because I thought about putting the jake from State Farm statement on the mask but than I found something that sounded better so I did it and i think is made a good joke about social distancing and neighbours and I liked making it and I think other classes and schools should do this I thought is was fun and I think it is a good way to talk about COVID-19 and i think it might get some people’s minds off of COVID and this global pandemic and quarantine

Flowers Of Hope🌱

Submitted by: zaina 👍🏽

Materials: Felt, lots lots of beads, needle and thread.

During COVID many people felt very trapped wearing their masks which is what the single beads represent. Now that we coming to the end of the pandemic (towards the end of the mask) the flowers bring a hope that one day no one will be wearing masks and that we will all one day be free of the pandemic. This mask relates back to me because the beginning of COVID was very grim and now with the vaccines out I’m excited to possibly have a normal summer. I really enjoyed working on this project in Mr. Martens class because I barely ever see.
