If you Dummies will Let me: I will be Back

For over 40 years, Harrison has reported on local and international cultural and political issues in a variety of media, including drawings, oil paintings, watercolors, and large installations. She uses iconography, pop art, and consumer brands to reflect on female, male, and transgender identity, often humorously subverting the gender roles that society has assigned. Her superhero series opens up new dialogues on gender stereotypes by using comic book aesthetics mixed with the British tradition of satirical cartoons.
