Resistance Sustenance Protection is a year of drawings, a pandemic record, an archive, a call for change.

Angry, funny, compassionate, tender, queer and political, these drawings make vivid, engaged, intersectional commentaries on the pandemic and the wider connections, ramifications and resonances that it has had across the world.

Multi-disciplinary artist Rachael House has made comics since the 1990s. The drawings in this, her first book, responded to events of 2020/2021 as they unfolded and as the world around us unraveled.

Resistance is never futile.
Rachael House is a UK artist who makes events, objects, performance, drawings and zines. Events have been curtailed over the past years, and drawing has taken centre stage, with her first book, Resistance Sustenance Protection, published in May 2021.

Rachael House’s work focuses on feminist and queer politics and resistant histories/herstories, aiming to reach as many like-minded people as possible, inside and outside of the art world. She uses humor, personal engagement and events to draw in those who may not be like-minded too - she recruits.

Alongside and as part of her fine art practice she makes zines. In the 1990s she was part of the international queerzine scene. Today, her zines are in museum and university archives and feature in academic and art books.
