This mural showing nurse Melanie Senior has been painted onto a wall on High Street by Manchester artist Pete Barber during October. It is adapted from Johannah Churchill’s photograph which shows her colleague Melanie wearing PPE at the south west London clinic where they both work. Melanie had been prepping for the opening of the local Respiratory Symptom’s Clinic at the time (https://www.swlondoner.co.uk/life/12102020-south-west-london-photographers-national-portrait-gallery-exhibition/ SW Londoner). The photograph featured in “Hold Still”, the National Portrait Gallery’s digital exhibition in May; this project was a photographic contest inviting people to capture life in Britain during the coronavirus pandemic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_in_the_United_Kingdom .
