John Magnan's show titled Thor's Hammer features many works with poignant statements relevant for our current situation:

Sword of Damocles
"This refers to the Greek fable alluding to the imminent and ever-present peril faced by those in power. Here I adapted the idea to the ever-present peril of those who have barely enough resources to live and could be devastated should an unexpected expense fall upon them. The sword is a wood handle and a plexiglass “blade” with an LED light strip inside. The boots are a carved cherry replica of worn out work boots."

How are you facing this unexpected economical and social crisis?
