Fight Lonliness

This artwork is of an elderly woman sitting in the chair. The colorful, yellow square alludes to how people now more than ever needs safe social interaction through video calls. Her feet and the surrounding area is blue, because the quiet pandemic, or the lonely pandemic, can also cause harm. This harm is oftentimes loneliness, sadness, and depression. I decided to pick an elderly person because they are one of the most vulnerable to the virus, so they have really been cautioned to stay inside. Lots of the elderly also do not understand how to use smart phones and video calls, so it is up to younger family members, friends, and neighbors to take the initiative.
