PINK TRIANGLES ON PARADE

Join artist and activist Dan de la Motte in this LGBTQIA+ History Month workshop, where you can put your very own Pink Triangles on Parade!

The pink triangle was originally a badge of shame for gay, bisexual and Queer men in Nazi-occupied Europe. In later decades it was reclaimed, as a symbol of resistance, resilience and anger by ACT-UP (Aids Coalition To Unleash Power) in the face of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and criminal inaction by western governments. The group chose fuchsia instead of pink as a nod to the punk movement of the same era.

In FRUIT MACHINE (the current exhibition in the Gallery Cafe), the pink triangle is used to identify and label key dates and moments from the LGBT movement in the UK as well as throughout the life of gay rights activist and artist Andrew Lumsden (1941-2023).

In this workshop, we will explore the pink triangles that populate the exhibition and the history and significance behind them. Participants will then be invited to come up with their own pink triangle, with a date and moment that is meaningful to their own LGBTQIA+ journey or identity.

We will explore these pink triangles, before turning them into a temporary exhibition, a response to the current exhibition FRUIT MACHINE, on at the Gallery Cafe.
