Mich\u00e8le Pearson Clarke: Muscle Memory<\/h2>\n

Exploring the vulnerability of queer female masculinity, Mich\u00e8le Pearson Clarke: Muscle Memory<\/a><\/em> is the first major solo exhibition in a public gallery for Trinidad-born, Toronto-based artist Mich\u00e8le Pearson Clarke. Working primarily in photography and video, Clarke examines black and queer experiences of longing and loss, while situating such grief as a site of possibility for social engagement and political connection. With Muscle Memory<\/em>, Clarke presents her largest installation to date, comprising both a new four-channel video and sound work, Quantum Choir<\/em>, 2022 and a selection of photographs from her ongoing series, The Animal Seems to Be Moving<\/em>, 2018-present.
