ABOUT THE ART
The Subservient Chicken is an advertising program created to promote international fast food restaurant chain Burger King's TenderCrisp chicken sandwich and their "Have it Your Way" campaign. The program featured a viral marketing website, television and print campaigns and a one-time pay-per-view program.
Artist Tristan Eaton was commissioned to design a pop-art vinyl figure to coincide with the campaign.
