Most employers in the health care industry are not requiring COVID-19 vaccinations for their staff, so some patients have a new question for their doctor: Are you vaccinated?
The two pieces belong together.
One is a metal sculpture of a spaceman. He shifts his weight as if walking in uncertain gravity. The gold mask on his helmet reflects back the visual world in front of him, including any startled guest who happens to be looking in. White and black graffiti equations, upbeat words, diagrams cover his primarily dark-silver-purple suit and the gold metal star that serves as his pedestal.
Behind the spaceman is a large canvas on a long partition. Four lines of black script neatly hang over one line of red. The lettering, brushed or rolled lightly, suggests a mix of language sources. Its indubitable legacy in street art almost disappears into an elegant, ancient calligraphy.
