The corona pandemic has revealed the actual dimension of irrationality in our, well, modern societies.

Gerald’s postcard which appeared in a limited edition of 3 copies shows the fictitious saint of the triangle. The Latin plea above his head says: “Protect us from the plague.” Under his feet is the score of a Gregorian song during the time of pestilence which implores the star of heaven who nourished the Lord.
Update
The drawing was included in an exhibition on the topic pandemic art, curated by the Artlife Foundation in Ventura, CA, USA. The exhibition was then transferred to Romania.
