An acclaimed artist from Milton Keynes is having a piece of work exhibited at Milton Keynes Central Library.
Anna Berry received a large Arts Council England grant to make a political piece of art in the library about consumer capitalism.
'The Constantly Moving Happiness Machine' is in the library for the whole of September, and a special supporting event is being held there on September 20.
Famous academic and author of The Divide, Jason Hickel will join Anna in conversation.
She will talk about consumer capitalism and Hickel will discuss economic degrowth, questioning politicians' and economists' unquestioning belief that growth is necessary.
Professor Kevin McConway will chair the event.
Anna's politically engaged-work has been exhibited nationally, at Tate Modern, and internationally, in Venice, America and Iceland.
Her Breathing Room installation in centre:mk proved a huge hit in 2014.
