Artworks created by Anouk (Karen’s almost 8 year old daughter)…
Anouk has this to say:
“I was listening to BTN – that’s Behind The News; it’s a news show for kids on ABC. They’ve been talking a lot about this corona virus thing and as I listened I started to draw and write what I was hearing. Like what it looks like under a microscope. Cells without the virus and then cells with the virus attached. A sink and soap and a towel… because we all need to wash and dry our hands, a lot.
Karen:
“I went into Anouk’s room on Saturday afternoon and saw these drawings on her desk. I found them shocking at first. Then beautiful. Now they make me cry. This is one of the ways that she is processing what she is hearing and learning. They made me reflect on the importance for us as humans to have space to begin to process and express what is happening. Unstructured play; to see what comes.”
