The expanded view of each card (click or tap it) includes more information, photos, and videos. The cards in the default view of the gallery are sorted in the order in which each artist, work, series, or exhibition is first mentioned in the book. The themes in these works touch very obviously on war, the aesthetic of violence (a topic Sarah writes about in Draw Your Weapons), mental health, and ideas and ideologies rooted in misogyny, sexism, and racism and white supremacy. YWFMS: A Digital/Visual Companion to Sarah Sentille’s “Draw Your Weapons” includes 18 works, series, or exhibitions by 17 contemporary artists working across a range of media: photography, painting, film, interactive video, performance. Praise for Draw Your Weapons 'A collage of death, savagery, torture, and trauma across generations and continents, Sarah Sentilless Draw Your Weapons is painful to read, hard to put down, and impossible to forget.

In Draw Your Weapons, a beautiful meditation on art, war, and the metaphor that connects each to the other, Sarah Sentilles makes mention of many works of art.
