At our third Biennial, local multidisciplinary artists have been commissioned as Storytellers to develop participatory sessions informed by their personal insights and experiences of the city and will lead visitors through the exhibition artists’ installations, research, and perspectives. They will offer both booked and drop-in walks and conversations to intergenerational audiences regularly throughout the duration of the Biennial.
Contact us at learning@torontobiennial.org to book a free group Storytelling tour for your school, organization, or community space.

Artist Bio
Laura Carvalho: Storyteller
Laura Carvalho: I am a Brazilian anthropologist and screenwriter. I conduct research on anti-colonial struggles, rivers, and the fight for land in a Latin American context. I am interested in exploring languages and blending anthropology with fiction as a way of creating new ethics and world imaginaries. I’m also a bread fermentation enthusiast, among other hands-on activities.
