This may be due to an additive effect with concomitant medications. Patients treated for central neuropathic pain due to spinal cord injury have experienced an increased incidence of CNS adverse effects, especially somnolence. Somnolence includes related terms of lethargy, sluggishness, and hypersomnia.

In this spirit, I have filled my own Zoom portrait with the intimate textures of my home, sharing a bit of my space in this unusual new paradigm we now live in.Medically reviewed by. Thus this work showcases myself as drawn from a Zoom window, where one also has the ability to superimpose a fake background. As well, I find many of my social interactions replaced with Zoom and other video-based calls: the square format of this exhibition seemed to call to me as a perfect inspiration for a portrait, reflecting on the square in which I now talk to my loved ones. I started playing with silkscreen monoprint because it satisfied the need to use non-toxic materials, and unsure of when my creativity would return to me, I started using the screen, with great satisfication, to frottage textures within my home, which I now barely leave.

As a printmaker, I am now largely cut off from using my studio where my presses live and have had to figure out what processes I could do safely in my own home. “Artist in Zoom” reflects some directions I have found myself in throughout the lockdown.
