A colour landscape image of a suite of three t-shirts hung in a row on a white wall in a gallery space. From left to right the t-shirts are coloured swampy green, light grey and red. The t-shirts are hung on black mannequin torso hangers. The t-shirts feature names of the controversial American military training academy written in collegiate American ivory white tower font in the center of each shirt. The green t-shirt has yellow text that reads” SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS 1946”, the light grey shirt has blue text that reads “CONTRAS NICARAGUA 1979” and the red shirt has white text that reads “ SCHOOL OF CHICAGO EST. 1973”. Underneath each shirt, on top of white plinths is a stack of folded-up t-shirts each corresponding to the shirt above them.
