Description

Celebrate the opening of Otherworld, the first major solo museum exhibition by Camille Turner in Toronto. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, and currently living and working between Los Angeles and Costa Rica, Turner is widely recognized for her transformative examination of Black history in the Canadian national narrative. Working in performance, photography, installation, digital and sonic media, often in collaboration with others, Turner’s exhibition continues her long-standing and wide-ranging exploration of Canada’s entanglement in the histories of the transatlantic trade of enslaved Africans.

Join us at the University of Toronto Art Centre and be the first to experience this newly commissioned immersive exhibition that takes visitors in a non-linear Afro-Astronautic journey transcending space-time boundaries.

This event is free and open to the public. No registration required.
