From Isolation to Community

The COVID-19 pandemic affected the Plymouth Region’s artists and artisans, isolating them from not only the ways they had shared or sold their artworks, but also from their communities and local experiences that had often inspired and supported their practice. But, even in these dark times, there were positives. The isolation encouraged introspection and focus, elicited reflection on life before the pandemic, an appreciation of in person connections, and demanded learning, growth, and new creative strategies.  As a large and diverse group, artists in this area responded in their own individual ways, but there are common threads. As the Plymouth region reopens and recovers, this exhibition aims to tell the story of our shared experience, our resilience, and our growth.
