Martin Firrell is a British artist well known for his public artworks on billboards around the world. He uses the billboard form to question unjust power systems of all kinds, including patriarchal power, the oppression of women and non-heterosexuals, and the heteronormative status quo. He uses language to engage publics around the world, provoking dialogue about more equitable social organisation. The artist's aim is 'to make the world more humane'. His work has been summarised as 'art as debate'.
