Lifting the Day

On the first day of lockdown, Mary Collis decided to post a painting onto her Facebook page, suggesting she would ΓÇÿlift the dayΓÇÖ during the forecast two-week lockdown. 245 days later she was still posting daily. This Facebook lockdown exhibition became a daily source of inspiration and sanity for Mary and her followers, as they shared memories through her art and words about life in locked down Kenya and beyond.
