Did Darwin deceive us? A new art exhibition highlights research suggesting key findings on non-heteronormative species
The Sainsbury Centre presents 'Darwin in Paradise Camp', a new exhibition by Yuki Kihara, featuring the UK premiere of 'Paradise Camp', a photographic series first presented at the Aotearoa New Zealand Pavilion in the 59th Venice Biennale in 2022, alongside original works by Paul Gauguin and a newly commissioned video work, 'Darwin Drag'Kihara's practice draws attention to the detrimental effects of climate change in the Pacific IslandsResponsible for less than 0.02% of global greenhouse gas emissions, Pacific Islanders' proximity to the sea means they are amongst the most vulnerable to changing weather conditionsIn particular, Kihara highlights the impacts of climate change on Sāmoa's most vulnerable inhabitants: the third gender communities Fa'afatama and Fa'afafine, to which the artist also belongs
'Paradise Camp' upcycles the works of French painter Paul Gauguin, recasting past narratives by using Fa'afafine and Fa'afatama models in colourful, hyperreal photographs reflecting Gauguin's compositions
'Darwin Drag' reveals how famed evolutionary biologist Charles Darwin manipulated some of his findings to suggest non-heteronormative species and same-sex attraction in animals was rare and unnatural, in order to conform with the conservative values of the Victorian period, following new research
Darwin Drag introduces the fish species with 'Fa'afafine traits' found in the ocean surrounding the Sāmoan archipelago, including clownfish and parrotfishThe work is presented alongside corresponding fish specimens, on loan from the Natural History Museum
The exhibition foregrounds how a closer relationship between humanity and the seas can save the communities most at risk of the human-caused impact on the seas, as well as the seas themselves'Darwin in Paradise Camp: Yuki Kihara' is one of three concurrent exhibitions in a programme exploring the question Can the Seas Survive Us?, which charts a course through the story of the world's oceans and the precarious future they may be heading towards
