Wild Fire: Art As Activism

The dynamic essays in this collection speak to activists, artists, educators, students and community workers who share a passion for art, politics and social change. The questions of why and for whom art is made and the way it can be used to promote discussion and transformation are addressed. Through exploration of a range of artistic projects – from mural painting, photography, zine-making, alternative publishing to street theatre, puppetry and protest singing – Wild Fire inspires critical and artistic forms of social commentary and action.
