Fish on a bicycle
Fish on a bicycle. This concept is derived from the famous feminist phrase " A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle", coined by Irina Dunn in 1970. That maxim is itself a paraphrase of " A man needs God like a fish needs a bicycle"

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fish on a Bicycle" is an abstract and thought-provoking piece of artwork that combines elements of feminism, religion, and nonsensical imagery. The concept behind this composition stems from the famous feminist phrase coined by Irina Dunn in 1970: "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle". This maxim challenges traditional gender roles and highlights the independence and strength of women. In turn, this print playfully reimagines the phrase by depicting a salmon riding a bicycle. It humorously suggests that just as fish have no need for bicycles, men do not necessarily require God in their lives. By merging these seemingly unrelated concepts, the artist invites viewers to question societal norms and challenge conventional wisdom. The vibrant colors and abstract nature of this illustration create an eye-catching visual experience. The composite image seamlessly blends various elements together to form an imaginative representation of relationships between feminism, religion, and absurdity. Overall, "Fish on a Bicycle" serves as both an artistic expression and social commentary on gender dynamics while encouraging viewers to embrace individuality and question established beliefs. This print from Science Photo Library sparks curiosity through its conceptual design while celebrating the power of art to provoke meaningful conversations about society's expectations.
