JRP|Editions is proud to introduce a new collaboration with renowned Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei, on three series of limited-edition lithographs titled “Grass Mud Horse” – after a mythical animal that has become a tongue-in-cheek icon of resistance to censorship by China’s online communities. The works feature a geometric tile consisting of surveillance cameras, Twitter birds and handcuffs, to symbolise the struggle for freedom of speech.
This project is in partnership with Human Rights Watch, which will benefit from part of the proceeds.
“Ai Weiwei is an inspiration to people fighting against oppression the world over,” said Tirana Hassan, executive director of Human Rights Watch. “We are absolutely thrilled to be working with him again and to partner his very first lithographic editions”.
