Corona Premonition, March 13, 2020
For Southern Ontario, March 13, 2020 signifies the end to large gatherings, closure of non-essential services and isolation. My needle-felted artwork is based on a photograph which I took on that symbolic day. This premonitory view of a “corona” cloud formation above 17th Street descending the Niagara escarpment, over Lake Ontario and distant Toronto also captures a physical crossroad leading into an unawakened vineyard. 17th Street itself leads to old Lakeshore Road which runs the circumference of Lake Ontario. The work is a metaphorical crossroad intersecting the “normal” and the “pandemic” landscape.
