Description

The current Covid19 pandemic bears an uncanny resemblance to the Spanish 1918 flu pandemic in terms of person-to-person transmission, global transmission, and frequent lethality. Over a 2-year period (February 1918–December 1920), as many as 500 million people, one-third of the world’s population, were infected with the influenza virus. The death toll was staggering, with an estimated 100 million lives lost worldwide. For comparison, this number of deaths is higher than all of the soldiers and civilians killed during World War I. Moreover, the virus killed significantly more people in 24 weeks than HIV/AIDS has killed in 40 years. These pandemics - Spanish Flu and Covid19 can be called modern wars actually and this artwork has the function of reminding us of the suffering and devastation caused by the pandemics that attacked humans in the last 2 centuries. Artwork created especially for #ArtUnderQuarantine curated exhibit of NFTs – Year II.
