For this exhibition, Pearlman designed a custom wallpaper to line the front window of the Children's Museum of the Arts in New York based on the forms in her installations. On top of this backdrop is a new cut paper installation evoking a deluge or downpour.

The title of this new work is ERUCTO, from the Latin verb “eructus,” which means to belch up or issue forth violently. It is inspired by the pent up torrent of dark forces in American culture being released in the current political moment.
