PISSED by Cassils
Glass cube filled with about 200 gallons of urine in a white wall gallery/museum Performance artist, Cassils, standing on a platform with a glass bottle of water, funnel, and an orange medical urine container. The same bottle type forms a giant wall of them in stacks etc PISSED is a glass cube containing 200 gallons of urine, excreted by @cassilsartist in the 200 days following the Trump administration's 2017 rollback of an Obama-era executive order, allowing transgender students to use the bathroom matching their chosen gender identities. As of April 2025, UK law under the Equalities Act introduced a similar rollback - defining sex in law as biological and excluding trans people from single-sex spaces that match their gender identity, including bathrooms. According to the artist, PISSED stands as a physical manifestation of the burden placed on an individual body when bathroom access is restricted by discriminatory policy. "It seems insane that I have to make a cube of piss for people to get this idea, I shouldn't have to make this. I shouldn't have to hold my own urine. It's crazy that we have to go to these extremes but this is the culture that we're living in." At the close of 200 days, Cassils invited the audience to witness the final acts that would complete PISSED. Standing on a platform above the audience, in front of a grid of 255 orange medical bottles marked with the date of urine capture, the artist shared the human acts of standing, drinking, and urinating. Accompanying this was an audio track featuring the oral arguments from the case of #GavinGrimm, the transgender male teen who became the face of transgender rights in his fight to use the boys' bathroom in a school in Virginia.

Cassils, "Undersight" (2025). On Oct. 4, the artist will project the 199 words banished by the Trump administration, encrypted as dots and dashes of searing light, into the night sky over 12 hours, from sunset to sunrise.

"It's a distress signal," says Cassils.

/3 New York-based Canadian artist Cassils isn't letting the U.S. government scrub those words into oblivion without putting up a fight. That vocabulary is too vital, they say, for self-recognition, solidarity and safety for the people it describes.

/6 "It's a distress signal," says Cassils of their use of Morse code. It's also a "visual strategy for resistance under these ever-shifting moments of increased censorship and surveillance."

Americans may be able to see it in the night sky if you look to Toronto, on October 4th (tomorrow).
