A project initiated by a group of friends, ‘COME TO MY WINDOW’ proposed a gesture of queer solidarity and ‘quiet’ visibility across Belfast, in the absence of 2020’s Pride, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
A number of artists, designers and photographers were invited to design and contribute open-source photographs and posters that the Belfast community could print and place in their windows and homes in the run up to Pride. As part of the project, this pair of bilingual posters was created in collaboration with artist Phillip McCrilly.
The designs were shared publicly and were available for free download for home printing and dissemination.
