Considering the “complex, fragile, and ephemeral” nature of queer community, TAREK LAKHRISSI—MY IMMORTAL is the artist’s first institutional exhibition in the United Kingdom. Citing references ranging from the Lavender Menace and Monique Wittig’s Les Guérillères to Evanescence and television soundtracks—the sonic work in the show is by Ndayé Kouagou—the presentation in Wales features Lakhrissi’s new film The Art of Losing as well as a selection of his new metal sculptures.*
