Summary:
"For ten years Alana Perino has photographed heritage sites in the continental US, searching for evidence of the myopics, orientations, and disorientations of the vestigial myth of American exceptionalism. What resulted was a psycho-geography that is now choreographed into a book of images and short essays elucidating a subconscious of American history, an aesthetics and semiotics of a curated and carceral past and present."-- publisher's webpage.
Notes:
