What’s your name and what kind of art do you usually make?
I’m Islam Allam I create digital art or to be more specific “digital portraits”.
Are you sheltering in place, if yes where?
Not sheltering in place just working in my room!
What did you work on before the pandemic?
I work usually on digital portraits, and I started my first steps in a long-term art project that I had planned to finish within 6 months.
What are you working on now?
Staying at home for a longer period of time gave more space to my work as a digital artist, so I went on to produce more works, like the project which I created on instagram #StayHomeWithAllam
It did not differ much, this situation gave more time to do my own work as a digital artist, and my concentration in work is somehow considered a kind of relief to calm the tension when I hear and follow the news of what is happening this days.
Biggest difficulty you are facing?
I feel confined and restless, even though in normal circumstances I did not like going out a lot. Most of my leaving the house is to go to work as a graphic designer. When this becomes obligatory, it is very heavy and uncomfortable about my job as a graphic designer, of course the general situation affected this as my source of income, but I try to deal with this.
Thing(s) that keep you sane? Drawn in what I love to do which is digital art, you did not know how much I knew the value of my love for this work except through this crisis and how I got a helping hand that helped me to overcome a lot in these days psychologically.
What are you looking forward to once this is over?
Meet friends on the cafe and smoke Shisha together! How much I miss this.
Additional thoughts: I hope that everyone will be fine and that the whole world will contemplate what happens when it ends and try to benefit from it.
