Born and raised in East London, Bunbury is of Caribbean heritage and has worked in the British design industry for over 20 years. In 2020 Bunbury co-founded Black Outdoor Art, a series of billboards across London, Leeds and Bristol platforming the work of African and Caribbean creatives to inspire discussion, activism and change. Supported by outdoor advertising agency, Brotherhood Media, the first iteration of the project (2020-2022) tasked graphic artists of colour to present works at billboard scale to start conversations between designers and illustrators and their communities. \r\n\r\nShout was created by Bunbury in 2020 as one of the first posters for the Black Outdoor Art project. The piece responds to ongoing conversations around race in the media, conversations that received heightened attention following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. Through Shout, Bunbury expresses the unfair burden of expectation that falls on Black people. The expectation that his individual voice will represent all Black people, and that he must constantly suggest (churn out) solutions for structural racism that affect Black British communities. \r\n\r\nThe importance of voices being heard is a theme that echoes throughout Bunbury’s posters, I Can’t Breathe (2014) and Shout (2020). I Can’t Breathe speaks to the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, and the silenced voice of Eric Gardner who repeated the phrase 11 times before his 2014 death in New York City. This phrase gained renewed currency following the murder of George Floyd in 2020. Created 6 years before Shout, both reflect on voices across Global Africa, and the role that design can have in creating spaces to be heard. The posters address ongoing contemporary concerns around language, self-expression and visibility.","physicalDescription":"Black text surrounds the central image of the poster, a man shouting and relating to the words that surround him.
