Puss and Mew
text
Puss and Mew is an interdisciplinary project by the artists Luis Carvajal and Annie Davey exploring the relation of gin to English social history through the recreation and reinvention of cultural artefacts and phenomena. Hence the Gin Acts, between 1729 and 1751, which sought to restrict the consumption of the previously state-approved narcotic, and the spirited response of London’s drinkers, driven underground.
