“The first in a series of interactive “digital puppet shows” or “visual poems” telling the story of a beautiful, wealthy woman (ostensibly Melania Trump) quarantined in a luxurious penthouse condominium. Her staff of servants have been dismissed and the woman must make her way through the day alone in an exquisite gold-plated purgatory. The foundation of each scene is provided by the viewing audience who respond to request for Imessage sketches before each chapter. Each of the clown’s faces the woman draws in her foggy mirror was submitted by a viewer responding the request to, “Draw the face of a clown that expresses your current mood.”– Daniel Barrow
