Description
Over recent years it seems as though we’re living in a cycle of bad news. We’ve swiftly moved from a global Pandemic to a war in Europe.
Food prices have soared and our government has made the cost of living unreachable for many. Whilst we speak about being part of a global society we also seem to be at the mercy of it.
Have political agendas ever really been about feeding the hungry? Or, are we in this mess because greed and political dominance have become more important than helping real people?

Notes
Heath Kane is an Australian artist, based in the UK. Heath is synonymous with creating bold, striking, often lurid art. He embeds subtle, subversive themes that encourage a political or social conversation. Heath’s approach to art has always been driven by the practice of design thinking: combining his experience in commercial art with the origins of pop-art. He focuses on creating simple, iconic and memorable pieces that have a strong narrative.
Heath has collaborated with Adidas, Stella Artois, Wired Magazine and Saatchi Art, and has partnered with Penguin Books to create the last published covers of George Orwell’s most famous books. Heath exhibits his work in solo shows all around the globe, and his originals and prints frequently appear in leading galleries worldwide.
