Next Time There''s a Pandemic
English
By (author): Vivek Shraya
During my first post-lockdown massage, I willingly engaged in the requisite chit chat about lockdown experiences with my therapist. He gushed behind his mask: Oh man. It was so great. Every day I woke up, drank coffee, read, rode my bike My therapists description did sound pretty great. But it was nothing like my own anxiety-ridden ordeal Had I done the lockdown wrong? In Next Time Theres a Pandemic, artist Vivek Shraya reflects on how she might have approached 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic differently, and how challenging and changing pervasive expressions, attitudes, and behaviours might transform our experiences of life inand afterthe pandemic. What might happen if, rather than urging one another to stay safe, we focused instead on being caring? What if, instead of striving to make the best of it by doing something, we sometimes chose to do nothing? With generosity, Shraya captures the dissonances of this moment, urging us to keep showing up for each other so we are better prepared for the next time...and for all times.
