A throne room, built from garbage and wrapped in aluminum foil, was discovered in a storage unit in 1964, Washington DC. Accompanying it, was a holy text written in an unrecognizable language. Together, these works make up James Hampton’s “Throne of the Third Heaven of the Nations Millennium General Assembly.”
