The Darlings x Chimerik 似不像 Collective Presents: ARCHIVE // SATURDAY NIGHT

ARCHIVE is an experimental retrospective exhibition featuring a body of new, reworked, and reimagined works created by the multidisciplinary, non-binary drag collective, the Darlings. For the first time in the collective’s history, this exhibition is a collaborative effort presented in partnership with Chimerik 似不像 Collective. The exhibition incorporates performance, drag, immersive new media projection, sculpture, multi-channel video installation, and an archive of costumes, props, and more. Concerned with queer and trans temporality while working through the artists’ individual and shared memories, ARCHIVE is an evocative and nostalgic reclamation of trans lived experience, and a collective pursuit of joy and intimacy in a digital age.
