Hole Heartedly yours, 

Alexis Iammarino 

This project began in 2014, as a personal inquiry into ways that my work as a community artist could more assertively combine my interests in interdisciplinary, collaborative research models and, in an idiomatic fashion, from the field of public history. Particularly in these times, can false, misleading, or bombastic claims (of all kinds) prompt cultural and societal critique of how knowledge operates in a relational space between faith and fact? This curatorial project continues to be driven by an interest offers a conceptual terrain and an inclusive venue for discourse between the dynamics of belief and fact, as well as the implication/significance of American as an adjective. 

KEEP THOSE SUBMISSIONS COMING for April 2021 :
