“In the main gallery, Brandt has created an immersive installation of 100 daguerreotypes of eagles, inspired by the current political atmosphere. These photographs, originally taken in Alaska in 2014, depict American bald eagles fighting for salmon and are made with melted American Silver Eagle coins and glass.”
