Pandemic Passage, which took place on 28th March, was the biggest and pioneering virtual art exhibition that IDRISSI<\/a> International School has ever held, gathering more than 500 junior artists of IDRISSI<\/a> International School. This opportunity was dedicated to art as seen by all the students who experienced COVID-19.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A few months before the launch, students discussed their idea and inspiration for their art pieces with the gallery leaders\u2014dedicated teachers. All the galleries were trying to represent a series of stories behind COVID-19, through what they went through and what they have seen.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The names of the galleries are \u201cPhysical Distancing\u201d, \u201cTribute to our Pandemic Heroes\u201d, \u201cI Thank COVID-19\u201d, \u201cLearning from Home\u201d, \u201cAway from Friends” and \u201cHang in There\u201d. The exhibition showcased a wide variety of art media ranging from paintings, photographs, poems, sculptures to crochets.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Each art piece installed on the wall plunged the visitors into different messages which led a walk into the galleries a memorable and relatable one. The galleries are still open for viewing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cEver since COVID-19 started, I felt lonely and I had to do online classes but then one day I felt happy because my cousins came and we had fun together. But then it reminded me that I could not get to see my father for a very long time and I really miss him.\u201d said Ryan Elias, one of the masterpiece artists in the Pandemic Passage Sales Gallery interview.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

His voice indeed resonated with many, who have been facing challenges and separated from their loved ones by borders. Sharing the same sentiments on his experience in COVID-19, the special guest, Mazlan Noor Along also spoke about the painting he produced during this period.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cJust like many others, the pandemic has led students to keep their stories and emotions unexpressed. Thus, we were trying to take a positive initiative to encourage students to release them by means of arts, without limiting their creative juices to flow,\u201d said the Principal, Julie Wong.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe by giving them an appropriate platform, it would empower and also motivate them to achieve new heights in arts while also gaining new life experience,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pandemic Passage Sales Gallery, which also aimed to support Hospital Sungai Buloh in aid of COVID-19 was spearheaded by Year 10 students who took Business Studies subject. Opened at 5PM and closed at 8PM, they managed to hit their sales target within three hours.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
