Child's Dollhouse #pizzagate (what Really Happenend at Comet Ping Pong)

ceramics and mixed media
30 x 15 x 16 inches (76 x 38 x 40.5 cm)

This miniature dollhouse replicates what followers of the Pizzagate conspiracy theory believe is really happening at the popular DC restaurant Comet Ping Pong. Levels of basement and dungeon beneath the restaurant are believed by some ardent theorists to host a child pornography ring involving Hillary Clinton, John Podesta, Marina Abramovic, etc. The artists have included heavily loaded pieces of the conspiracy in the dollhouse, all believed to be at the actual location. The conspiracy theory led to an actual shooting within the pizza restaurant as a fanatical conspiracy theorist attempted to free the children trapped by Clinton and fellow democrats.
