I’ve been binge-watching Hunters on Prime Video. Its a crazy show about Nazis in America and a colorful group of vigilantes who are hunting them. There is one scene when they find themselves in a bank vault with jewels, family heirlooms, and art that was confiscated from the Jews before they were sent to the Death camps. I kept thinking that the only remnants from these countless families were their material possessions. If we found ourselves ushered off to death camps because a foreign regime….what would be left? What paintings and poems and stories would come from our possessions? What would people learn about us from our things? What would our art look like?
