A paradigm is a typical example or pattern of something. Artists such as Banksy will often challenge the dominant paradigm of the time. Banksy is the pseudonym of an artist who is only known by his famous images and designs painted on public walls. Banksy’s work conveys a strong message and is considered to be confronting and controversial. These artworks have political and social themes such as materialism. Banksy is rebelling through his work as what he is doing (painting on walls without permission) is considered to be vandalism and is illegal. He is challenging authority with this approach.
