Featuring selected works from Cuthand's thirty year career, the exhibition looks at his diaristic explorations of sexuality and politics to performative radical histories and narratives that dive deep into society's treatment of mental health, Indigenous peoples, and land. Always authentic, honest, and raw, Cuthand’s work continues to break open often-taboo topics and give us a new freedom through the camera. The exhibition is generously supported by the Toronto Arts Council and Canada Council for the Arts. ----- Image: Theo Jean Cuthand, video still detail, Dreams of Sunlight Through Trees, 2024.
