BEAUTIFUL POSSIBILITY
A traveling exhibition and research project by ALISON PEBWORTH

Drawing inspiration from the nomadic experience of 18th and 19th century itinerant explorers and traders and the traveling culture of medicine shows and chautauquas, Pebworth travels across the U.S. engaging communities about what it means to be American. An exhibition of hand-painted banners “re-tell” American history by mixing eras, integrating obscure and popular figures and linking historic myths and contemporary culture.
