"Distant Connections is a comic book collective created during the first lockdown in 2020 by a group of artists from diverse backgrounds in terms of culture, experience, career & geographic location (Europe, China, USA & more). Our stories reflect on the strangeness of the lockdown experience and explore how drawing and writing help navigate emotions of isolation and loneliness. We believe engaging with the arts boosts confidence and improves mental health.--From Distant Connection's website.
