Artist's statement on this artwork originally published on the @laborcamp Instagram account:
There is an element of poetic justice in how COVID arrived in America as a sort of reenactment of the disease brought here by the Old World centuries ago. Now that statues of Columbus are being toppled, we recognize, that this is the end. The genocidal luxury cruise is over. Time to wake up from the colonial wet dream: The false empire is crumbling.
