Artist's Description
This portrait is symbolic of all of us in healthcare who have been relentless in providing care through this pandemic despite not always being properly protected. It comes from a place of sadness for the disproportionate number of us who have been infected. It comes from a place of disappointment knowing we have the knowledge of how to stay safe but not always the supplies to have done so. This is a tragedy not a workplace hazard.The left hand gesture is a symbol used in religious imagery to indicate something important is being said.

The coat a cape in some aspects to suggest the 'hero' mantra used during this fight.I hope this is over soon with the vaccine as the endgame but I also hope important lessons have been learned about pandemic preparedness.
