🌟 Pandemic – The spread of the virus

In the painting "Pandemic - The Spread of the Virus" from the series "Contemporary Stories" by Adam Laabs , the artist depicts a surreal scene full of symbolism and profound meaning.

Symbolism of the painting:

Plague Doctor: In the foreground is a figure in the plague doctor mask, which represents the fear of the unknown and the Attempt symbolizes protecting yourself from invisible threats. The Doctor's mask and appearance reference the history of the plague doctors who "tried" to prevent the spread of disease in the past.

Flying bird: The bird above the doctor symbolizes freedom and hope. Its colorful plumage contrasts with the gloomy atmosphere and suggests the possibility of escape or rescue.

Surreal sky: The sky in vivid colors symbolizes movement and change. It represents the constant evolution and unpredictability of the pandemic, in which nothing is certain.

Path and checkerboard pattern: The path leading through the image and the checkerboard pattern in the background symbolize the journey and the decisions that everyone has to make in times of uncertainty. The pattern suggests strategic decisions that are necessary in times of crisis. As in a game of chess, whoever can play wins. Others can try to trick you, they can even do checks, but until the end you have the chance to checkmate. So play and fight for your health and don't let anyone manipulate you.

Surrounded by time symbols: The image is interspersed with clocks and other timepieces, reflecting the constant threat and represents the urgent sense of time during the pandemic.

Reflections on history:

During previous pandemics, doctors often showed up offering help that wasn't always effective. The sad reality is that history repeats itself over the centuries and that in times of crisis it is often difficult to find help. Don't believe everything you hear and see. History tends to repeat itself. Think about who benefits from all this? You? The people? Or someone else? And if someone has an interest in something, will they always play fair? This is a question worth considering before blindly believing the media. It is well known that the media has not been "free" for a long time, and when someone controls the media, they do as they please. A lie repeated 1000 times sometimes and for many becomes the "truth". Fortunately, not everyone believes everything they hear and see. Common sense is much more important than the voice of the crowd and the voice of the majority. And what if the majority is wrong? People believed one thing for centuries, and then someone came along and said something different, and suddenly the paradigm changed. So think about whether it's worth believing everything.

"Pandemic - The Spread of the Virus" is a work that is not only visually impressive, but also encourages reflection on our existence, history and future. It is part of the "Contemporary Stories" series and invites the viewer to reflect on the symbols and deeper meaning of the painting.

Interesting fact about the plague doctor

The plague doctor, also known as the plague doctor, wore distinctive protective clothing consisting of a waxed cloth coat, a beaked mask, gloves and a cane. It was believed that masks with herbs in their beaks protected against the plague. The beak was intended to protect against miasma, which was believed to be the cause of the plague at the time.
