JEAN-MARC SUPERVILLE SOVAK
Jean-Marc Superville Sovak has been mistaken for Hispanic, Native American, South Asian, Gypsy/Roma, Middle Eastern, and North African.   Searching for what he really looks like, he made a video entitled “Brother?”, where he scoured the cityscape for his döppelgangers. Having graduated  in 2007 from the Bard MFA program and suffered really only one major identity crisis, he is now, with his family, perfectly integrated in upstate New York, where he collects deformed bricks.
