Villiers revealed: ‘we have always been here’

collaborative exhibition curation, artist response and workshops

‘We Have Always Been Here: Villiers Revealed'‘ is a collaborative project and exhibition exploring non-western queer histories and gender fluidity. Through collective collage, poetry, and illustration, the work reimagines George Villiers’ portrait alongside expressive, fluid, and queer-ed depictions, interweaving historical and present-day narratives of gender and sexuality.

Created through workshops with LGBTQIA+ communities, the project celebrates interconnectedness, storytelling, and the ever-evolving nature of queer identity.
