Title: Ana Esteve Llorens Interview, May 20, 2020
Date: May 20, 2020
Creator: Ana Esteve Llorens; Naoko Wowsugi
Description: Visual artist Ana Esteve Llorens, who is originally from Spain but now resides in Austin, TX, shares how COVID has impacted her. The pandemic has both changed and not changed her life: she has had to reinvent how she relates to her family, friends, and students, but as an artist working alone in her studio, she believes that the loneliness many are feeling is not new to her. Ana's passion for creating art has been a primary motivation, as well as her network of friends. She says that we must keep hope alive, and talks about how she has come to appreciate the things she had taken for granted before, such as "the rhythms dictated by nature". Ana ends by saying that she's positive we'll make it out of this crisis.
