Allison Bianco
The Providence River Cover Up

2019

About the Item

The Providence River Cover Up explores the outlet of the Providence River from the vantage point of East Providence, RI. The landscape shows a nearly 100-year-old view of railroad tracks that traveled by the harbor. Over the century, much of the waterway has been hardened over and covered, as its function as a port diminished. Abstracted graphic shapes and orange caution flags serve to underline these changes and allude to warnings on the horizon and the contemporary reality of rising tides. The title of the work lends itself to the storied and romanticized versions of Providence mob history as much as it references an oftentimes purposeful erasure of certain histories in favor of more popular and palatable ones.
