Abstract
COVID-19’s ongoing, protracted visitation has prevented due acknowledgement of efforts to control it, particularly those of the medical workers who volunteered to serve on the frontlines, disregarding uncertainty and personal risk, in the early days when the consequences of exposure were unknown. This artwork seeks to memorialise the diligence, selflessness, and professional commitment of the medical community in a time of extraordinary difficulty. Referencing historical patterns of iconography, this graphic imagery proposes a modernised representation of bravery by interweaving narratives of equality, inclusivity, humour and optimism, to recognise the unnamed many who helped make the world a safer place.
