Artist: Callum Kyle and Alicia Henderson. Confronting Bodies: Erica Cherney, chairwoman of the Downtown Buisiness Improvement Area in Peterborough. Date of Action: July 2007 Specific Location: Peterborough, Canada. Description of Artwork: Two banners to be hung from street posts. One depicts the stripes of the American flag morphing into bombs along with the Statue of Liberty having an X placed over it. The other banner shows a jet fighter flying over a city labeled as Detroit. These were hung along a street with 20 other student-made banners.
Cherney explains that she removed the banners so as not to damage the upbeat mood of an upcoming street sale and Ribfest event.
