Lee Lai, Katie Parrish, Merv Heers and Sam Wallman are queer cartoonists based in Melbourne. Their drawings explore notions of gender, sexuality, class, visibility, and the ways these things overlap. Using The Substation’s front gallery space and the Transit Gallery Billboards, this exhibition will examine remnants of Gay Liberation, reflections on contemporary queer assimilation and resilience. The artists will mince along the cartoonist’s fine line between subtlety and obviousness’

‘Anything that a woman can do that doesn’t fit this society’s definition of what a woman should do is classified as non-compliance and, as you might expect, is punishable by a one-way trip to a space prison, colloquially known as Bitch Planet.’  Taken from Comics Alliance article here !
