Abstract
Description
In this art piece, titled "The Giver," Participant 482 shares their perspective of the COVID-19 pandemic and describes their work: "I am not a painter or an artist by any means. I am a pharmacist by trade. However, during this pandemic I unexpectedly felt compelled to put this piece together. This is a mixed media piece, consisting of acrylic paint, caps from the Pfizer vaccine and diluent vials associated with the 696 doses given to healthcare workers, a face mask, and a face shield. Collectively representing the personal protective equipment and resources so the healthcare worker may continue serving their community, giving their all to those in need. And in looking at this piece, you feel their drive, energy and fire to keep their patients safe. Therefore, I call this piece �The Giver.�
