Sarah-Joy Ford 'A Queer Manifesto' tote bag

This organic cotton tote bag featuring artist Sarah-Joy Ford’s design has been designed exclusively for the Whitworth to accompany the (Un)Defining Queer exhibition. 

This pattern design is featured in the border of Ford's banner quilt in the exhibition. The pattern was created in partnership with the (Un)Defining Queer constituent group. The artist and group came together for a creative session to write and illustrate A Queer Manifesto. With the designs created by the group, Ford has used their illustrations as inspiration for the collaborative A Queer Manifesto Design.
