Alyssa Casey

Alyssa Casey's work relates to the memory of Ana Maria de Jesus Ribeiro da Silva, better known as Anita Garibaldi, the crucial role she played in her husband’s revolutionary work, and how her memory has been appropriated over time. Inspired by a chance encounter with a graffiti of "Mazzini" next to the front door of a house in Montemerano, Tuscany, Mazzini's driving principle of thought to action, and Garibaldi's laconic telegram of "Obbedisco" ("I obey"), Alyssa's contribution consists of single words, assuming Anita's voice and describing her recorded actions, posted next to four doorways of the Garibaldi house, as though the viewer were privileged to a clandestine epistolary effort to communicate with Giuseppe.
