Pop culture has the ability to spread ideas globally across national borders. However, there is a tendency for pop culture to glorify violence. “Pop Culture” is a gun that James Clar, an American, and Rami Farook, an Emirati, took to the desert, fired, and then cast in candy.

The target used is an issue of Art Review. Other details in the performance include James wearing a shirt with a pig on it, Rami wearing a local Emirati Kandora, and two buildings in the background connected by a bridge.
