Women of Color: Healing America

"Women of Color on the Frontlines" is a project initiated by a physician in response to the observation that female healthcare workers of color are underrepresented in the story of the US' fight against COVID-19. She put out a call to female physicians of color around the US to send their selfies and a call to artists to paint any portrait based on the selfies. I responded by painting 15 portraits in a single painting.

Rockville Art League Award, December 2020

Black Lives Matter

The cities of the US erupted in protests against the pandemic of racial injustice in July 2020

Your Breath Counts: Vote!

This painting brings together three major experiences in the US during 2020: racial pandemic, Corona pandemic, and the hope of change that voting brings.  Fighting for breath is a common thread that runs through all these major events.

We the Women

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of two events that affected women’s lives significantly: the women’s suffrage in 1920 and the pandemic in 1918. Women voted and wore masks then. History repeated itself in 2020.
