Artist and curator, Joanne Mattera writes, "While news about the corona pandemic centers rightfully on the human toll of the virus (and the presidential ineptitude that has made it worse) another less visible toll has taken place. The resulting quarantine has drawn the curtain on our creative community. Imagine the disappointment of artists who have worked a year or longer for a solo or group exhibition only to have it postponed, or worse, installed and unviewed."
I spent well over a year and a half working with the gallery director, planning the show I was in, as well as creating the work to hang in the gallery.
