Ask Mia Risberg how her creative process has changed during a pandemic and she will welcome you into the world of the “Quarantine Chronicles,” a twenty-four piece series as part of a call and response project organized by Shoebox PR. Working out of Ann Arbor with acrylics, oils, and cold wax mediums, Mia was paired with Jessica Chappe, a photographer based in LA. Together, they created “Inside World,” a beautiful representation of life and emotion during social isolation. Mia’s work offers a soothing message of inner-peace: “although the figures appear introspective and isolated they also seem to merge with the natural world. Through their imagination, they expand away from their inside world and strive for connection with others and also with nature, which is something that is always constant.”
