A lavish banquet hall with ornate gold-trimmed ceilings, grand chandeliers, and elegantly set round tables covered in cream linens and purple floral centerpieces. The space is filled with hundreds of identical golden chairs, but only a few human figures are presentβand they appear oddly lifeless or artificial. Near the center aisle, two figures stand stiffly by the American flags, facing away from the viewer. Another figure is scattered near the sides, motionless, with an uncanny, mannequin-like presence. The people seem digitally inserted or rendered, contributing an eerie, surreal quality to an otherwise regal setting.
