Testing 123...

If you were an essential worker during the pandemic, you know this test all too well. The daily ritual—swab, swirl, wait. 1-2-3… do I have it? Am I okay? It became a constant background hum, a quiet anxiety we all learned to live with. This painting features a snail perched on boxes of COVID tests—a slow, steady creature surrounded by the symbols of a world moving too fast, too uncertain. The snail is a reminder to breathe, to take it one day at a time, even when everything feels fragile. This piece is about the tension between urgency and stillness, fear and endurance. It's a quiet tribute to those who kept going.
