Pigs are popular animals in activist art, they are often used to symbolize excessive consumption, waste and animal cruelty. They are intelligent and sentient animals, and their use in the food industry and animal testing is often considered problematic.
Pigs are often depicted in activist art as fat, fattened animals. This depiction is a criticism of excessive meat consumption, which is seen as an environmental and social problem.

Pigs are also often depicted in activist art as animals that are killed for their meat, but only a portion of which is consumed. This depiction is a criticism of food waste, which is a global problem.

Another sculpture "The Pigsty" by Paul McCarthy (1998) depicts a pigsty. The sculpture is a critique of consumer society. The pigsty is depicted as a place of filth and decadence, which is an allusion to the food waste that is associated with meat consumption.
The Pig is also used as a symbol of the fight against animal cruelty. Pigs are also often depicted in activist art as animals that are abused and tortured.

The paintings are a critique of space colonization and the use of animals in scientific research. Pigs are depicted as animals that are mistreated and tortured, which is an allusion to the conditions of animal breeding and experimentation. Damien Hirst's sculpture "Pig" (1994) represents a dead pig, suspended in a glass case filled with formaldehyde. The sculpture is a critique of meat consumption and animal cruelty.
