Queer Britain, Skittles®, Gay Times and Getty Images have once again joined forces to create an open-air exhibition called Queer Joy across the King’s Cross neighbourhood in London. It will showcase 50 striking portraits of queer people, captured by emerging LGBTQ+ photographers from the UK and abroad. The free exhibition aims to shine a light on the unfiltered, queer self-expression that is vital to the LGBTQ+ community and highlight the feeling of Queer Joy. The portraits will be displayed on the outdoor art benches around Queer Britain’s museum space, in Granary Square, Pancras Square and Battlebridge Place as part of The Outside Art Project, which has turned the King’s Cross neighbourhood into one of the largest outdoor gallery spaces in London. Exploring the concept of ‘Queer Joy’ – defined as the deep happiness that brings warmth and purpose to queer lives - the exhibition is part of Skittles®, Gay Times, Queer Britain and Getty Images’ mission to improve LGBTQ+ representation in photography.
