out of isolation: artists respond to covid-19
Lin Hsin Hsin
out of isolation: artists respond to covid-19 is a special series of creative, critical and personal responses by artists on the significance of the coronavirus to their respective contexts, written as the crisis plays out before us. Based in Singapore, Lin Hsin Hsin reflects on the passage of time in her poem time passes by, slow.
As the world continues to grapple with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, many unique tensions, fears and doubts about the future have arisen. out of isolation: artists respond to covid-19 brings together artists' creative, critical and personal responses on the significance of the pandemic to their respective localities and contexts—what kinds of inequalities and injustices have the crisis laid bare, and what changes does the world need? If the origin of the virus is bound in an ecological web, what forms of climate action and mutual aid are necessary, now more than ever? Written as the crisis plays out before us, the series aims to spark conversation about how we might move forward from here.
For the second of this series, IT inventor, artist, poet and composer Lin Hsin Hsin contributes her poem time passes by, slow. Find out more about Lin Hsin Hsin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lin_Hsin_Hsin.
