The Bite Back Movement
The Bite Back Movement is an artist duo consisting of Alexander Augustus (UK, 1988)[1] and Seung youn Lee (South Korea, 1982). They are best known for their A Dangerous Figure series, initiated by Augustus in 2013 as a solo show at Somerset House.[2][3] The artwork was a user-generated installation protesting the figures of young unemployment in the UK. The work was funded by O2 : Telefonica and featured the participation of over 10,000 young people in the UK, attempting to "rebrand young unemployment".[4][5]
The pair have created artworks and led workshops in the UK, Germany and South Korea since 2012,[6] most notably lecturing for Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, and The Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology.[7]
