Wooden sculptural wall-art made of small blocks of differently colored wood glued together in a pattern.

Three small black and white photographs of women sitting at desks hang on a white wall. Beside them is a small metal shelf with a 2-drawer card catalog placed upon it.

A pink glowing box the size of a minifridge with various nozzles and notches sits on a small dais on the floor. Hung on the wall behind it is a quilt of sensationalist magazine clippings bordered by a pink feather boa.

Three oversized necktie-shaped pieces of fabric in red, cream patterened, and brown are draped outward from a sconce on the wall. Each has a mysterious object placed with it.
