The piece is based on the diaries of David Wojnarowicz, a queer, American artist and the AIDS pandemic times activist. The project is part of Fformatt the Arts programme produced by FFormatt, a night club, which has been currently expanding as a platform for visual and performing arts. WE ARE ALL FFAGOTTs!

D&AD Lates: Our Toughest Brief Yet
How can the creative industries respond to climate change and global warming?
