Carole HĂ©naff's love in the time of coronavirus (above), and (below) her portrait of Dr. Li Wenliang, an ophthalmologist from Wuhan. He's the first doctor to have given the alert about the coronavirus. He was arrested by the Chinese authorities accused of spreading false rumors online, and forced him to sign a letter apologizing and that he would never do it again. Shortly after being rehabilitated, he contracted the coronavirus. He died on February 7th. Carole uses strong colours and bold clean graphic design.
