Golden presents Reprise, their second collection of poetry and photography, in a reading/performance and conversation. Through sonically playful poems and color-saturated portraits, Reprise traces a personal search for safety, home and self-liberation amid national uprisings, anti-trans violence, grief and survival in the United States.
Golden (they/them) is a Black gender-nonconforming photographer, poet and educator raised in Hampton, Virginia, and currently based in Boston. Their work documents Black trans life at the intersections of survival, care and creative practice. Golden is the author of A Dead Name That Learned How to Live (2022) and Reprise (2025), and their photographic series On Learning How to Live was an Arnold Newman Prize finalist. Golden teaches photography at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston and has received fellowships and support from MacDowell, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and the City of Boston.
