The group of artists deals with popular culture in a way that causes the viewer to re-evaluate notions of value and heirarchy. The work is all recognizable and yet, unfamiliar. Television, pop music and everyday objects are transformed in the process of challenging who we are and what we cherish.

 

The show is accompanied by a catalogue which features additional dialogue on these international artists.
