The COVID-19 Archive

Hybrid working, infection-rate statistics and discussions of vaccines have become ubiquitous, but do they help us truly understand the changes the world has gone through since the COVID-19 pandemic started? The Intellect COVID-19 Archive platforms the researchers who have worked to unravel the virus’s impact on the community and the individual through the lens of the arts and humanities. These books and articles present new research into the pandemic’s impact on mental health, the environment and our relationship with the digital world. The authors propose what the future of work might look like, post-pandemic; and they analyse the impact the media has had in its reporting of COVID-19. The Intellect COVID-19 Archive also platforms work and reflections by practitioners across a range of artistic disciplines – from moving image, to dance, film and drama. This artistic focus provides further insight, not only into individual experience, but into how art can be utilized as a tool to aid healing and understanding.
