Curated by Kiera Boult & Em Barton. From the 2021-24 Viral Interventions Commission, 25 artists from five continents created 18 new infectious videos about living with HIV today, bringing their stories to life with wit, rage, tears and grace. This installation explores the origins of this research-creation project, linking VI to past related projects such as Toronto Living with AIDS and Second Decade PSAs through research materials. Artist objects and materials drawn from VI’s creative processes, while a Viral Interventions I-Doc presents case studies of each video. Viewers can also watch all 18 videos in the Research Centre’s viewing station.
