“I’m Never Alone,” Golden’s debut solo exhibition, maps the artist’s connection to Black aliveness through their ecosystem of chosen & blood family over the past 60 years. This multi-medium installation brings together the fabrics of Golden’s award-winning self-portraiture series On Learning How to Live and their debut poetry collection A Dead Name That Learned How to Live. Exploring the languages of self & collaborative portraiture, family photo albums, sibling-made sculptures & fashions, visual odes & poetics, and the architecture of Black homemaking.
By elevating the mundane, the human matter, and our makers, this exhibition highlights the tension between home & history, friend & family, audience & company. Shrinking the miles & years between Hampton, Virginia, Pocomoke City, Maryland, and Boston, Massachusetts to showcase that Black queer life has always been here. Forebearer to our own nations, foraging our own forgiveness, finding freedom inside & outside the home.
