Visual Art Moving Image Street/Site Specific

A video installation about the way the Coronavirus Pandemic has changed our vernacular forever

From: Ōtepoti | Dunedin

Pandemic Neologisms is a video installation about the way the Coronavirus Pandemic has changed our vernacular forever. Before 2019, we probably hardly ever used the word Pandemic, let alone Sanitise, Outbreak and Lockdown. Words like Bubble, Mask and Isolation have been forever altered into something else.

Type and image can be used to view words, their meanings and how their interpretations change with time and events. This window video installation invites you to view words associated with a global pandemic as their interpretations have transformed and morphed into something else.
