Art Journeys in Corona Times (2021)
Art Journeys in Corona Times is an international collaboration reflecting on our individual and collective experience during the Corona Virus Pandemic around the world.
Similar to the concept of the Exquisite Corpse, artwork traveled from artist to artist around the globe. Participants responded to and add onto the work of their predecessors; creating a record that is both personal and shared.
Initiated by Swedish artist Emelie Rygfelt Wilander at the start of the Pandemic in 2020, the work traveled between Sweden, The Netherlands, Germany, China, Australia, Kenya, Chile, Puerto Rico and the United States. The project culminated in the summer of 2021 with an exhibition at Not Quite Gallery in Fengersfors, Sweden.
