The Royal B.C. Museum turned artist Adad Hannah’s static video portraits of people in his Burnaby neighbourhood over the first year of the pandemic into an exhibit, and now a book
Frustrated at being locked down and not able to continue his work during the first days of the pandemic, artist Adad Hanna grabbed his camera and took to the streets of his Burnaby neighbourhood with one goal in mind — to make art.
“About half of the people I asked if they wanted their picture taken said no. I was actually surprised that 50 per cent said yes,” said Hannah. Rather than merely capturing their images, Hannah asked his subjects to hold a pose for at least 30 seconds. He began to share his pandemic pictures and stories on his Instagram account , where they caught the eye of India Young, art and images curator at the Royal B.C. Museum.
“He is hyper-focused on his location — yet the work is also universal, reflecting a global experience.”
