A large tapestry hangs on the wall. The central image is a black and blue mushroom cloud expanding against a pale pink, white, and yellow sky. A ghostly figure and city skyline overlay. White text travels around the outside of the textile within a blue border, with a black fabric backing. The text reads “The Group of Masterminds in Higher Dimensions of Time and Space are Engineering a New Society that is ‘Just Around the Corner’”.

An establishing view of a gallery with wooden floors and grey walls. On the wall hang eight dye-sublimated prints on satin. Their imagery is drawn from historical newspapers, combined with the artist’s illustrations. These artworks track the rise of fascist organizations and ideologies in Minnesota in the 1930s, in particular, the pro-Nazi organization the Silver Legion of America (or Silvershirts).
