The Black Jigsaw Project
For its final project of 2020, MQBMBQ teamed up with visual artists Kwesi Botchway and Ggggrimes with the sponsorship of GUCCI, for the creation and launch of The Black Jigsaw Project. Just in time for the holiday season, both artists gave us their takes of Black Queer identity which we produced and put on sale by way of a limited edition of 100 jigsaw puzzles, enabling an interactive relationship between artist and spectator in a way that is not usually possible. From the sale, MQBMBQ raised a total of €17,600 and minus the costs of shipping , we were able to donate a total of €15,000 to Movimento Identità Trans (MIT) — one of Italy’s oldest and most important Trans centred organizations.
