LightSource Show
THE AMERICAN IMAGINATION EXHIBITION AT LIGHTSOURCE
September 2019
The Roswell UFO Incident chapter from my in-progress project, The American Imagination (renamed Beneath A Paper Moon) was on display at LightSource (1661 Tennessee Street, #2W in San Francisco) from September to October.
Beneath A Paper Moon visualizes a wide variety of American stories in a bid to shed light on America's still young storytelling tradition. LightSource hosted the inaugural exhibition of this project, featuring the chapter that considers the Roswell UFO incident that considers how the world's first detonation of the nuclear bomb in White Sands, New Mexico gave rise to enduring UFO myths in the area.
