THE RECEIPTS

Each episode of The Receipts revisits a work created in real time during 2018 and connects it to headlines unfolding now.

Created week by week during the second year of Donald Trump’s first presidency, the 2018 series captures the atmosphere, fears, patterns, and warning signs as they were happening. It also remains the most complete chapter of the larger archive so far.

Revisited during the second year of Trump’s second term (2026), these episodes trace how many of those warnings evolved into visible consequences while revealing the deeper patterns that continue to repeat across culture, politics and everyday life.

Part visual archive, part visual journalism, The Receipts connects past and present while the larger archive continues to unfold in real time.

Future works on canvas, representing 2026 and beyond, are still in progress.
