It is a visual action taken by social activists to make a point clear. Protest art is also used with the intention to promote counter-thinking about the fabric of society itself. Often such art is used as part of demonstrations or acts of [[civil disobedience]]. Some key icons in protest art have been the dove, the [[peace symbol]], and taunting messages. |
