Political satire: Funko Pop-style politician figurines and a clawed hand hoarding money, in an office overlooking Sydney Harbour.

The central figurine is a caricature of a male Australian politician with an oversized, hollow plastic head, a forced, vacant grin, and dead plastic eyes.

To his left and right are other identical, generic political figurines in crisp, dark business suits, all fresh out of their corporate packaging, standing completely stiff and soulless. In the background, looming behind the shelf in dramatic shadow, are the "Money Men"—shadowy, sharp-suited globalist technocrats and transnational asset managers. Their faces are partially obscured by low-key lighting, but they wear expensive tailored suits, gold watches, and high-end silk ties. One of them has a massive, claw-like hand explicitly scooping up piles of gold coins, Australian polymer banknotes ($50 and $100 notes), and corporate property deeds directly off the back of the shelf.
