about

This third and final part of the Kokoro series is inspired by the political and social upheaval in the US during the Spring and Summer of 2020. It is an experimental journey through our collective emotional journey of frustration and fear. The title, "Contagion of the Mind", is a reference to the racism, cult of personality, and disinformation we've all been exposed to for the past few years which have only gotten worse over the last nine months. It is a response to seeing authoritarianism rise, democracy fall, and the constant gaslighting coming from the right-wing Fascist movement in the United States.
