This immersive exhibition of photographic works by Keeva Lough invites the viewer to contemplate history, gender, and violence by focusing on toys, nick-knacks, and dolls. These innocuous objects - plastic “cowboys and Indians,” porcelain depictions of colonial scenes, little army men and police officers - are considered as conveyors of ideology that inform our assumptions about American society.

The photos are high contrast and filled with deeply saturated colors; some are rendered in red-and-cyan 3D, emphasizing their artificial spectacle. Individual photographs are framed in thrifted wooden frames painted gold. Others are printed as wallpaper covering the walls of the gallery, calling attention to the invisible backdrop of ideas making up our conceptions of the world.
