Join Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (BIMA) and artist Clyde Petersen in this hyper-local mini festival of works, including his autobiographical feature film Torrey Pines about growing up with a schizophrenic mother as a queer youth in the early ‘90s, plus selections from his short films (When Home was a Blue Sky, Boating with Clyde). Clyde (they/he) is a transgender Northwest artist, working in film, animation, music, installation, and fabulous spectacle. He re-creates lost worlds and documents queer culture that has been largely erased by AIDS, capitalism and gentrification to offer alternate, more equitable realities and futures for overlooked queer communities. Clyde’s solo exhibitions often feature life-size replicas of objects and nature. Made entirely of cardboard, these landscapes fill the room and surround his film projections.
