The installation stands in direct view of the building that supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed on Jan. 6, threatening the peaceful transition of power and forcing a panicked evacuation of the nation's leaders.
This memorial honors the brave men and women who broke into the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021 to loot, urinate, and defecate throughout those hallowed halls in order to overturn an election.
None of the participants have returned comment as to whether the bizarre art installation acts as a satire on the rioters or a more serious commentary on those events.
The riot caused some $1.5 million in damage to the building, and members of Congress have said that some of the participants urinated and defecated inside.
