Infodemic

Building on the Evolving Anatomies (Caulfield/Oliver) work from the first Dyscorpia exhibition, these relief and inkjet prints were created as part of a larger interdisciplinary project initiated by brother, Timothy Caulfield, that examines the impact of misinformation around health in the context of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The project will result in text and image pieces that will be shared through social media, as well as in the form of an artist’s book designed by Susan Colberg.
