Ms. Marmara is especially good at unearthing ‘visual gold’ - […] unsung design elements, photo shoots or ads.

Alexia Marmara is a (FR-UK based) researcher, curator, archivist and artist specialising in uncovering the uncelebrated. She focuses on stories that are left untold in an effort to correct bias in narratives within the history of art and culture. She centres the humanisation of archival objects in order to speak of fragile stories. Her process defies the drawbacks in our institutionalised systems of remembering and collecting as she prioritises breathing alternatives to our silencing modes of representation within historical research.
