Aram Han Sifuentes’ project, The Official Unofficial Voting Station: Voting for All Who Legally Can’t, allows the disenfranchised to become more visible by casting their symbolic votes. By imagining voting opportunities for those whose voices are not often heard, Han Sifuentes both points to the inherent inequities in our voting system and creates a space for all of us to come together to protest and celebrate each of our individual perspectives.
The project, which was born out of her own inability to vote in the 2016 election, will be presented at multiple venues throughout the country leading up to the US election, allowing Sifuentes to collect data from multiple locations and create a more accurate portrait of what the US actually looks like. Voter responses will be viewable on a monitor from the sidewalk through the windows of SoEx, and online at
officialunofficial.vote.
