Published to accompany the exhibition 'Disobedient Objects' held at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London from July 2014 to February 2015. 'From a Suffragette tea service to protest robots, this exhibition was the first to examine the powerful role of objects in movements for social change. It demonstrated how political activism drives a wealth of design ingenuity and collective creativity that defy standard definitions of art and design.' - from the exhibition website
