In June 2018, the Supreme Court upheld President Trump’s Executive Order, which bans travel to the U.S. from several predominantly Muslim countries. The engraved text is a “found poem” composed of language extracted from the Court ruling on the ban. This is an interactive piece; viewers are asked to remove and dissolve the language.
