After artists learned that London's Design Museum was connected to Leonardo, a large arms dealing company, and hosted an event for them, many of the artists featured in their Hope to Nope: Graphics and Politics 2008-2018 asked the museum for their work to be removed. After receiving no response, one third of the show's artists removed their work from the show. From Nope to Hope: Arts vs Arms, Oil & Injustice is an independent protest exhibition featuring the work that was removed from the Design Museum's show. The artist staged this protest show against the Design Museum's affiliation with Leonardo and the trade of armed weapons.
