Artist: Bianca Kennedy
Created: 2022

About the artwork: 
In her ongoing series, Bianca Kennedy portrays forms of personal protest from individuals who have reached their breaking point and turn their frustration inward. The legendary bed-in, initiated by Yoko Ono and John Lennon in 1969 as a peaceful protest against the Vietnam War, serves as one of the inspirations for the drawing series "Sit-in, Bath-in, Lie-in, Die-in." These drawings and risographs draw upon our cultural history and depict people who detach themselves from external pressures. From early childhood protests to Straight Edge and Hikikomori, various facets of personal defiance are explored, with Kennedy often representing objects that symbolize renunciation.


Based on the original Artwork: LE LIT (THE BED), Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1892)


About the exhibition:
