A helping hand....
The earliest days of the pandemic in Australia were marked by a mixture of confusion, disbelief and for many, a degree of ambivalence and even apathy. Reports from overseas punctuated the news with increasing intensity and heightened concern as the weeks rolled by, but these were far from dominating news cycles here. As an arts worker the ripples of effect had become visible in the sphere of my work by late 2019 but these remained easy to shrug away or ignore; a few cancellations of visiting Asian based public speakers or artists who had planned to perform at this festival or another; seemingly mere inconveniences to be temporarily worked around rather than a precursor to something more imposing.
