When words fall short in describing the coronavirus outbreak, symbolism fills in the cracks. Each illustrator was presented with the prompt: Express how the pandemic is affecting you symbolically. Using a variety of styles and mediums each illustrator had a different response.
One illustrator feels all she sees now is information related to COVID-19. Two illustrators feel this is limiting their ability to appreciate spring, a season all UVM students look forward to after surviving the harsh Vermont winter. Together this series is an emblematic response to the pandemic.
