We are the people

2016
Digital print
30 x 20 in

This limited edition print was produced for Studio Voltaire on the occasion of the exhibition of the video installation, In My Little Corner of the World, Anyone Would Love You. The poster is a tight crop of an image taken from the London Gay Liberation Front’s 1971 manifesto. The photograph is intentionally changed from a horizontal to a vertical orientation to provoke an altered attention to the image.

The poster was fly–posted on sites across London throughout the duration of the exhibition, as well as installed on a large window in the gallery space. Original photograph was found in John Chesterman’s papers, Hall-Carpenter Archives, London School of Economics.
