FOR THIS PROJECT, I RESEARCHED PROTEST ARTISTS BARBARA KRUGER AND EMORY DOUGLAS. I TOOK INSPIRATION FROM THEIR WORK TO CREATE MY OWN PIECE OF PROTEST ART INSIDE A CARDBOARD BOX. I CHOSE TO BASE MY PROTEST ON LACK OF FUNDING FOR MENTAL HEALTH, AND ITS CONSEQUENCES. 

SOME ELEMENTS OF MY PROTEST WERE INSPIRED BY THESE ARTISTS, SUCH AS EMORY DOUGLAS' ILLUSTRATIONS OF PEOPLE AND BARBARA KRUGER'S SNAPPY CAPTIONS.
