BlackGrange is a walking project that was commissioned by WalkingLab for the program Indelible Refusal: Bodies, Performances, and Walking Resistance. Presented from the perspective of fictional time travellers, the walk reimagines and reframes present day Toronto by illuminating stories of the African Diaspora in the Grange neighbourhood since the founding of the town. After its presentation as a live guided walk/performance, BlackGrange was developed into a self-guided sonic walk and as a series of 7 staged photographs entitled After Black Grange mark the stories of each site.
