4 Under the Glare of COVID
During COVID, I organized a Community Health Fair and saw to activities like educational talks, health screenings, exhibitions at booths to attract local businesses, and raffles to raise money. I also led our team in a community health education program on Preventing Cognitive Loss and Alzheimer’s Disease. One of the most engaging projects I undertook was designing public relations posters for the Asian American Medical Society, promoting wider literacy in public health. In these pieces, I was especially inspired by the style of Soviet agitprop, but instead of martial images associated with industrialization and proletariat revolution, I instead infused my pieces with soft and humane images emphasizing harmony and solidarity in the face of our common vulnerability.




A Less Intimate Future (aka The Mother w/ a Mask)
The mother cradles her child, but he will not know the warmth of her breath. Love abides, but human contact... that is another story.

A Bleak Future
She stares out the window into an abyss, but her eyes are full of hope, and her arms are full of love.

A Valiant Battle to Win the Future
Hands overlap in such numbers that you lose count of the total, forget whose fingers are whose. When COVID wanes, will the world go back to shaking hands again, or was the softness of a stranger’s palm another casualty of the pandemic?
