35	Plague Doctor Collage, Badlands, SD 2020 Bill Steber This is a collage of 5 tintypes made at Badlands State Park in South Dakota. It was less than a month after the annual motorcycle rally in nearby Sturgis when the state had some of the highest rates of Covid 19 positivity in the world and pandemic denialism was in full force despite as many as 250,000 cases being tied to the rally. It was a time of uncertainty, anxiety and surreal absurdity. My response was to place a medieval plague doctor at the center of a panorama of tintypes depicting the harsh, strange, and beautiful vista of the badlands, a place of quiet beauty and humbling desolation.

36	Covid 19 Still Life 2021. Bill Steber This is an ambrotype still life created with a camera and lens from around 1900. I wanted to do a traditional pandemic-themed tableau in the style and sensibility of the 19th century, complete with medical ephemera and memento mori. At the center is a used vial of Moderna vaccine, surrounded by medical masks, gloves, antique bottles of alcohol and disinfectant, a frame containing bat skeleton bones, and in keeping with a true memento mori, a replica of a human skull. The intent of this piece is to connect our modern time with pandemics past, connecting our current challenges with their historic antecedents. Carbon print from wet plate collodion ambrotype	$1,200
37	Danny and Margaretta Goodpasture, Centerville, TN 2020 Bill Steber This is a portrait of my parents in their yard in Centerville, TN. They have always been avid gardeners (their yard is well known in my home town). But during the isolation imposed by the pandemic, maintaining their environment took on deeper importance. It was also the main place that we visited together for over a year, as I strove to protect them from possible outside exposure while needing to maintain our connection.

38	Sharisse Steber and Robert Bright, Centerville, TN 2021 Bill Steber This is a portrait of my sister Sharisse Steber and her partner, Robert Bright. Being graphic designers meant that both were able to work safely from their respective homes. But the pandemic did add additional burdens and complexities as they are both single parents of teenagers who had to attend school remotely. They coped by taking frequent hikes and camping trips in nature. Carbon print from wet plate collodion tintype	$1,200
39	Library staff, Centerville, TN 2021 Bill Steber David Dansby, director of the Hickman Co. public library, poses with library employees Sheila Bunn and Mavis Hiner as well as an albino deer taxidermy that has been the library’s mascot since 1976. During the pandemic, the library was open, but the book stacks were roped off with only employees being able to retrieve items for patrons. This portrait is an appreciation of the tireless public servants that found ways to continue to serve their respective communities while maintaining their own safety and that of the public they serve.

40	Rutherford County Health Dept., Murfreesboro, TN 2020 Bill Steber Lashon Miller, center, stands with nursing staff in front of the Rutherford County Health Department in downtown Murfreesboro. “We were tasked with providing the bulk of testing, and then vaccinations for our County, until it became more widely available later on,” says Miller. “Our staff started out very, very small, with about 6 of our nurses, including myself. We eventually hired contract nurses to help us as our operations grew beyond what we could handle on our own. At that point we were working with a staff of around 12-15 nurses depending on some quitting and new ones getting hired.” Carbon print from wet plate collodion tintype	$1,200
41	Lashon Miller RN, Murfreesboro, TN 2020 Bill Steber Lashon Miller is the director of nursing for the Rutherford Co. Health Dept. and at the onset of the pandemic, was in charge of testing for Covid 19. "Reflecting on those early weeks of the pandemic, the fear and uncertainty was very real,” says Miller. “It placed an unprecedented demand on our nursing staff. Our resilience was tested as we were faced with the incredibly difficult task of organizing and operating Rutherford County’s COVID-19 response. As events progressed it didn’t get easier or more forgiving, but we grew stronger and more resilient. Our family and friends will never fully understand the physical and emotional toll that it took on us, or the sacrifices that we made for our community. We went through some of the darkest times that we as nurses have ever had to endure, but we learned to kick back at the darkness until it bled daylight. Now there is light. Now there is hope" Carbon print from wet plate collodion tintype	$1,200
42	Pat Casey Daley getting Covid test, Murfreesboro, TN 2020 Bill Steber Pat Casey Daley of Murfreesboro has a test for Covid 19 administered by a nurse in the parking lot of the Rutherford County Health Dept. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the health department has tested approximately 53,000 people and vaccinated approximately 50,000, all with a small team of nursing staff. “No easy feat, let me tell you,” says Lashon Miller, RN and director of nursing. “That's a lot of blood, sweat, and tears right there; all outdoors in extreme weather conditions.” Carbon print from wet plate collodion tintype	$1,200
43	Lucious Spiller and bottle tree, Clarksdale, MS 2020 Bill Steber Like most performing artists, blues musician Lucious Spiller had very limited opportunities for work during the pandemic. He is seen here at Hopson plantation outside Clarksdale, MS in the heart of the Mississippi Delta. Behind him is a large bottle tree made by Tennessee artist Stephanie Dwyer. Bottle trees originated in the Congo in the 8th Century and their use migrated to the new world with enslaved Africans. It is believed that the colorful bottles capture evil spirits and offer protection. Carbon print from wet plate collodion tintype	$1,200
