The Art of It All

What have you learned about yourself or the world as a result of living through the COVID-19 pandemic? Your challenge is to express your experience of living through this historic time through a work of art.

Can NASA sooth a child from overwhelming corona experience ?

Summary

In a new unique start, a piece of art is made transforming child's feelings during corona time into a story and how NASA managed to rescue him by comparing feeling of a child to feelings of astronaut who passed through same situation in long mission, did astronaut find answer for this stressed child?

How We Addressed This Challenge

This challenge is about to express my experience of living through this historic time through a work of art, we expressed the psychological impact on children living under stressful quarantine conditions in different photos using shared information from NASA which were of great help. we were impressed to discover that social distancing that we were angry about has also happened to astronaut and as we go deep in NASA resources we discovered how astronaut coped in this hard time. NASA gave us a wild inspiration to help children as they imagined themselves as astronaut.

How We Developed This Project

We got a wild inspiration from one of NASA resources which discussed how astronauts managed to cope with social distancing in long distance missions. we thought of writing a story about a child who is 12 yr old,to send a message to those kids who need guidance through this hard time by using what most kids want, they want to be astronauts. Space agency date was of great help and as we go deep we found more and more important resources which can help all children in the world, we used many tools, PowerPoint, illustrator, Photoshop,and paint. we faced many problems starting from finding a free images to download e.g. child character to use, mixing pictures together, gathering information and summarizing it in a unique simple way easy to understand by children in different age e.g. 8 to 15 years old.
