Indulgence
Jules Faber
In the second year of the pandemic Australia’s total case numbers exploded from less than 30,000 to more than 1.2 million. Jules Faber draws Prime Minister Scott Morrison as a medieval plague doctor in a beaked mask as a criticism of the Morrison government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. As the bodies pile up behind the prime minister, Faber addresses his habit of sharing photographs of homemade curries on social media.
