- Ana Esteve Llorens Interview, May 20, 2020

- Description
- Visual artist Ana Esteve Llorens, who is originally from Spain but now resides in Austin, TX, shares how COVID has impacted her. The pandemic has both changed and not changed her life: she has had to reinvent how she relates to her family, friends, and students, but as an artist working alone in her studio, she believes that the loneliness many are feeling is not new to her. Ana's passion for creating art has been a primary motivation, as well as her network of friends. She says that we must keep hope alive, and talks about how she has come to appreciate the things she had taken for granted before, such as "the rhythms dictated by nature". Ana ends by saying that she's positive we'll make it out of this crisis. This video is part of the Humanities Truck's From Me To You: A Covid-19 Oral History Project. https://humanitiestruck.com/frommetoyou/

- Antonious Bui Interview, May 14, 2020

- Description
- Artist Antonious Bui, a fellow at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, MA discusses the impact of COVID-19. Antonious shares how, as a cultural worker, there have been a number of postponements and cancellations that have impacted the ability of fellows at the Fine Arts Work Center to work collaboratively in person. Antonious discusses how the pandemic presented an opportunity to critique institutions and demand a more equitable future, thanking the Fine Arts Work Center for responding to demands for stipend and stay increases. Antonious talks about how family, loved ones, and other artists have provided invaluable support, and also shares how it's been inspiring to see how the pandemic can provide a model for collective movement on other issues like the climate crisis. Antonious ends by hoping that we see how our "normal" is unsustainable, as it only serves the richest and most privileged. We need to recognize that we are not all equal, and that we all need to continue to pay attention to understand that collective movement -- and art -- is more important than ever.
