Created in 2017, this dyptich serves as a portal by which to look back on Trump's (first) presidency from an indeterminate future in which "the wall" was built and eventually decommissioned, with pieces left standing as remembrance of an oppressive regime and a monument to equality and acceptance. Includes imagery appropriated from the Berlin Wall, American street art and pop culture, as well as from fellow vegan artist and activist Karen Fiorito.
