As the COVID pandemic ravaged New York City nursing homes, a diverse mix of therapists, nurses, cleaners and nursing assistants worked around the clock treating their elderly patients. These portraits were made in May 2020 in a makeshift portrait studio in the COVID unit at a private nursing home in New York City. Over the course of 3 days, approximately 70 staff members posed in the improvised studio in between caring for their patients.
Оскільки обриви пандемії опустошили будинки престарілих штатів Нью-Йорка, цілодобово лікували своїх літніх пацієнтів різноманітні поєднання терапевтів, медсестер, прибиральниць та фельдшерів. Ці портрети були зроблені у травні 2020 року в імпровізованій студії портретів у затишному відділенні приватного будинку престарілих у Нью-Йорку. Протягом 3 днів приблизно 70 співробітників позували в імпровізованій студії між тим, як піклуватися про своїх пацієнтів.
