Trump’s Third Term ‘Campaign’ Begins in Chelsea NYC: Cyborgs, Amazing Glutes, and the Dawn of American Dystopia

Artist Daniel Edwards unveiled Project 29 on May 26, 2025, at the Iconoclast Room in West Chelsea, New York City, imagining a third Trump presidential term.
Edwards created Project 29 to explore how a presidency might extend beyond legal and ethical limits, fueled by biotech spectacle and public belief.
The sculpture depicts Trump's severed head preserved inside a life-support orb, which is connected to a dual-bodied cyborg merging features of Elon Musk and RFK Jr., representing a fusion of authoritarian tech idolization and a presidency operating beyond constitutional legitimacy.
Edwards said the work examines how a willing public embraces extreme measures to maintain power, while references like a euthanized 2024 rabid squirrel evoke current political tensions.
The exhibition runs through May 31, 2025, includes special events, and signals the launch of Trump’s third-term campaign as a dystopian cultural moment.
