a public archive of queer devotion
What’s the wildest thing you’ve ever done for love?
Come lose yourself in this intimate exhibition, where answers to this question are brought together to form a living archive of queer devotion: the romantic, platonic, mutual and unrequited.
From handwritten letters and secret treasures to NSFW videos and messy public confessions, ‘What I Did For Love’ celebrates the beauty, bravery and naivety of queer affection.
Inspired by the ways queer communities have historically survived through chosen family, mutual aid and acts of care, you’ll be invited to read, listen and reminisce on your own acts of queer devotion. Leave rich in the love you gave away for free.
Please note – there will be a headphone library, but people are encouraged to bring their own headphones.
