If you followed the news in Newfoundland this winter, you'll already know that St. John's has been blanketed by snow. It looks magical, but it's meant business closures and people left stranded at home. Now, in the wake of the relentless weather, COVID-19 has shuttered storefronts and, like everywhere else in the country, kept people from gathering or doing much venturing out.
In this video made by filmmaker Latonia Hartery, you'll meet Molly Margaret, a paper artist who has decided to use her work to call attention to seasonal affective disorder - something more people in Newfoundland may be experiencing than usual. She says, "This piece I'm making today is about seasonal affective disorder, in Newfoundland specifically. The winters here can get cold and grey and quite dull and, as we all know, quite long. So I'm expressing a light at the end of the tunnel using colour and silhouettes."
