The artist and the weavers

Who wove the twenty enormous tapestries?
On the websites/ exhibition it mentions the name of a male artist

Has he done 8 million individual stitches on each of the 20 tapestries on eight-hour shifts?

Who spun the wool?

So many questions.
So much to see.
So much to ask.

The $1bn #RWNJ #crusade to ‘crush’ liberal America's #WokeMindVirus - brought to you by Federalist #SCOTUS architect #LeonardLeo's #MarbleFreedomTrust.
