KENNARDPHILLIPPS (UK)
Kennardphillipps is a collaboration between artists Peter Kennard and Cat
Phillipps, who have been working together since 2002 when they began
producing art in response to the invasion of Iraq. Their practice has since
evolved to confront power and war across the globe.
The work they produce is made for the street, the gallery, the internet,
newspapers and magazines as a critical tool that connects to international
movements for social and political change. They also lead workshops that
help to develop people's skills and ability to express their thoughts about
what is happening in the world through visual means.
In their own words, "We don’t see the work as separate to social and
political movements that are confronting established political and economic
systems. We see it as part of those movements; the visual arm of protest.
We want it to be used by people as a part of their own activism, not just
as pictures on the wall to contemplate."
