Art in Corona Kaal







We all know what role air travel played in the spread of the Corona Pandemic globally. Initially when we took the pandemic for granted and ignored all warnings coming from WHO, the continued and unchecked air travel helped this virus to reach each and every corner of this globe.

This particular work is my visual interpretation of this particular occurrence in human history. Visual documentation of this pandemic and it's effect on humanity is what I want to accomplish with this particular series of works done during this global health threat.

Dance of Corona during Corona kaal... 
This work is created recently during this pandemic lockdown period. Part of my Art in Lockdown series. Don't want to explain or guide anyone regarding this work. You may like it or may frown at it for being gross. But this is my visual interpretation of this global pandemic. I just tried to capture the ruthless aggression of this virus. It's highly unpredictable and ever mutating for its survival and to spread fear among human race. Death and despair is spread across it's face and body. Performing a dance of the macabre and thus isolating each one of us into obliteration.
