Cassils's art, currently exhibiting in Australia for the first time, is a physical response to Trump, violence and LGBTQ+ rights.

allowing transgender students to use the gendered bathroom of their choice, Cassils started stockpiling their urine.

For 200 days, the Canadian-born, US-based sculptor and performance artist collected their own and others' urine — with the initial plan of sending it to the White House , but ultimately with the aim of turning it into a piece of protest art.

"It seems like a small thing [denying transgender people access to their bathroom of choice], but it's metaphoric and it's indicative of a larger level of control," they explain.

Are you kidding me!? It's a clear container filled with piss!! Not to mention the 'performance art' which is basically a lunatic attacking clay. This is a seriously disturbed individual with no talent just trying to get attention. How the hell is this news?

It’s a wonder Trump doesn’t round transgender people up in a camp! He’s done equally bad things like separating children from fleeing immigrants.

ABC, please delete your account and find something else to do. Maybe try software development.

Art is obviously a loosely used word these days
