Panacea
Artists Michael Pinsky, Neil Bromwich and Zoe Walker developed an evolving and expandable travelling artwork designed to function as a universal cure-all for social, economic and political ills. The artists collaborated with Dr Mark Downs, a specialist in commercial drugs testing, to develop a suitable method to monitor the efficacy of their endeavour.
Panacea offered a thought provoking and humorous comment on society's increasing expectation of the artist as social reformer, economic revitaliser and catalyst for all things good.
