Clara Toro makes work that documents a changing Miami. With an eye towards history and personal narratives, Toro photographs people in their homes, at their places of work, and the mundane but deeply relatable experiences of daily life. This exhibition, the artist\u2019s first solo presentation, includes previous work as well as recently commissioned work to coincide with the re-opening of the Freedom Tower, a National Historic Landmark under the stewardship of Miami Dade College.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In honor of the 100-year anniversary of the Freedom Tower, Toro photographed many Miami residents to complement an oral history project led by the staff of the Museum of Art and Design. In producing these black and white portraits, Toro encouraged participants to smile and express joy as a symbol of resilience. She also invited subjects to be more contemplative to honor the struggles they endure. These portraits form the core of this exhibition and other featured photographs offer context for Toro\u2019s formidable practice. Born in Medell\u00edn, Colombia, Toro lives and works in Miami.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
