This is the digital blueprint for a series of silkscreen prints I created in the spirit of WPA artists in order to honor essential workers and promote justice in the climate of the Covid-19 pandemic. In a sense, I'm imagining a public art program that would address and respond to economic and social issues of this crisis, just as New Deal art programs dealt with the Great Depression. I feel that the past year has proven what activists have been saying for a long time: American workers deserve better pay, job security, and guaranteed healthcare. When I found out about the Creative Action Network, I was pleasantly surprised to find there's already a community of artists out there working with the same ideas, motivations, and historical influences as me, and I'm excited to join the cause. - Addison Bryant
