DIÁRIO DE ARTISTA: A Importância da arte durante a pandemia da Covid-19 e no período de isolamento social

Abstract

The study is entitled "Artist's Diary: The importance of art during the COVID-19 pandemic and during the period of social isolation", and in this context we intend to reflect on how artistic production can be an important element in seeking emotional well-being, especially during this period. Understanding that going through a situation of social distancing is something that completely changes the way people are used to living, behaving and thinking, what we sought was to observe how artistic means can collaborate with the search for emotional balance, in this way we relate Frida Kahlo's artistic life and isolation, we briefly go through the thinking of the Psychology of Art in Vygotsky, and at the end we present our production of personal poetics in the form of digital illustrations and finalized as a pandemic diary, in the format of a virtual artist's book, as a way of representing our emotional state during this situation of health and social crisis.
