The People’s Lawn: Bringing the White House back to the People
Bettina Hubby, 2020
commemorative poster
24 x 36 inches
full color
$24

The poster, released on Inauguration Day 2021, is a composited still image from Hubby’s Virtual Reality work, which was released on Election Day 2020. Hubby invited 45 artists, activists, and healers to reclaim the White House by responding to the question: If the space in front of the White House were given back to the people, what gesture, activity or ritual would you bring to uplift it?

The poster includes statements from the participants as well as notes on the other props and animals depicted.
