National Trust - '126' Queer Exhibition

The '126' project at Sutton House was a 2015 audiovisual exhibition where LGBTQ+ people recited Shakespeare's 126 Fair Youth sonnets, each paired with a brief video portrait. Curated by Sean Curran, it was the centerpiece of Sutton House's inaugural Queer Season, aiming to highlight queer narratives in heritage spaces.

I created this poster with a collage pastel effect to tie together the modern and old elements of the poster, mirroring Shakespeare's portrait so he was gazing at himself, and using stills from the video to incorporate the subjects into the poster.
