French illustrator Jean Jullien wanted to bring people together during quarantine in the only way he knows how: through art. He created the “Peace for Paris” symbol using the Eiffel Tower after the 2015 Paris terror attacks. Jullien created a black-and-green illustration capturing two individuals embracing through an iPad screen. He wanted to shed light on iPads to Hospitals, a volunteer group whose mission is to collect iPads and other smart devices to send to hospitals and nursing homes to keep patients in touch with their families and friends, here is the latest…
The Latest on iPads for Hospitals
Using Art to Support the Cause
Jullien saw a volunteer group attempting to make a difference in people’s lives while many are suffering. He hopes to bring awareness to this cause with his art because of his desire to focus on “the warmth of bringing people closer.” His art has always been about inspiring people to stand in solidarity. He says his sketches are “a reaction” to what is going on around him, and right now this virus has taken a toll on the entire world, on people he has always tried to unite. Reaching out to loved ones with iPads to Hospitals has taken off in recent months. But they still need all the help they can get, which is where Jullien saw a need. The tablets have been mainly distributed throughout hospitals and nursing homes in New York, where the U.S. was greatly impacted by the virus. However, the group and hospital personnel hope this will inspire others to get involved however they can to keep loved ones in contact during isolation. Stay connected to your family members and do what you can to lift the spirits of COVID patients, send cards to hospitals, or donate used tablets that are still in good condition.
