On October 14, 2020, a major news story from the oldest continually published daily US
newspaper (founded by Alexander Hamilton in 1801) with the fourth largest circulation
today was censored. The New York Post could not even post their own news
story nor could their news be shared by Facebook and Twitter users. Never
before has the freedom of the press and freedom of speech been silenced in the
history of the US.
Materials: Paper, foam, cotton and metal.
Techniques: The jail, computer and umbrella were designed
in software and cut with an electronic cutter. Printed paper and fabrics were layered
underneath. The paper was fused, stitched and glued with matte medium.
