WASHINGTON, May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Leon Fenster, a British-born artist and storyteller, is announcing the nationwide release of his latest artwork, "January 6th: How We Got Here." Following a successful soft launch, this thought-provoking piece takes viewers on a captivating search-and-find exploration of the perfect storm/long trail of chaos that led to the January 6th insurrection and its antecedents. The work can be purchased as a print or jigsaw puzzle.
Fenster's artwork meticulously weaves together visual elements that represent the key political events and dynamics that culminated on that day. Audiences can prepare to delve deep into the events of that day, their causes and effects, and, become detectives of history, discovering hidden narratives embedded within the artwork.
In a powerful visual narrative, "January 6th: How We Got Here" is a compelling addition to Fenster's eclectic portfolio of story-telling art, resonating with political enthusiasts across the country. The work aims to spark thoughtful conversations and challenge viewers to reflect on the complexities of the political landscape and the societal factors that led to this pivotal moment in history.

The puzzle comes with 787.5 pieces, one piece for every million dollars Fox News paid Dominion Voting after settling the historic defamation lawsuit.
"This work is about that catastrophic day in January," said Leon Fenster, "but it's also about how we got to this point, how our leaders and institutions failed us, and how Americans can think about healing as a people. I hope audiences will find their own emotions in it–shock, surprise, horror, sadness, even irreverence."
