The Ontario Museum of History & Art presents Equal Justice Under Law, an online exhibition by artist Leah Knecht.

The artist presents a body of work centered around the utilization of ephemera and assemblages to examine injustice in society and politics.

The title Equal Justice Under Law is a phrase engraved on the West Pediment, above the front entrance of the United States Supreme Court building in Washington D.C. It is also a societal ideal that has influenced the American legal system.
