Notes

Protest Banner used in Standing Rock protests in 2016. Banner features a thunderbird in a lightning storm with a heart on their chest.
"Murdoch created this banner to protest attempts to lay oil pipelines through Native American territory, potentially polluting rivers. Murdoch is part of the Onaman Collective, a group of indigenous artists and environmentalists. He carried this banner at protests at Standing Rock, USA, and released the digital image free for use in political action to defend water and land"--From Being Human exhibition caption.
