Covid has had a grip on society for over two years now, and the effects are still widely being felt. People from all corners of the world have felt doomed, damned, and everything in between because of the virus. Even though there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel and things are slowly getting back to normal, there’s still a disconnect.
Sydney Davis has started a series called Artists Talk Mental Health. Where performance-based artists get up and present their most personal works on why and how covid has affected their mental health. These pieces reflect that pain and put it out in the open for a discussion and an open dialogue not just between artists but for everyone.
He presented these photos and explained he’s good now, but he struggled with his dream during covid for a while. On the surface, people saw a man living lavishly with gold, glitter, and glory, but in reality, he was homeless and just as low as anyone else during the pandemic.
Join Sydney and countless others on a journey that I think more people need than they feel because sometimes we all want someone to just listen. Come out and not only will you be heard but listen to the stories of countless others who also felt like they were all alone.
