Amazing work by UNSW Q***r Collective, who have installed a space on Kensington Campus to sit and ponder WHAT MATTERS 🙌 The installation will be on display all week on University Mall, outside Webster Building.

WHAT MATTERS to JJ Chapman (they / them), Business Partner for UNSW Science
The perfectly made cup of tea, good hair, a quiet home, honest, genuine and zany friends, kitty cats, care for my mental health and the liberty and safety of equality for every person. As a Bi+ person about to turn 50, I’m angered at our society’s descent into legalised discrimination, increasing hate crimes and the erasure of Bi+ people everywhere. My Bi+ community has saved my life and I now educate, advocate and support others in the fight for equality and safety in our 21st century life. The freedom to be our true selves is what matters.

WHAT MATTERS to Ro Elders (they / them), a student member of Engiqueers UNSW and UNSW Q***r Collective
What matters to me is having a place where I can be comfortable to be unapologetically myself and not have to hide who I am. That means having a community of people backing me up and supporting me regardless of what’s going on in my own life. It matters to me that young people are able to see people being true to themselves so that they can have someone to look up to and know that there is no reason to hide. With all that is going on in the world, it is so important to have a place where everyone can feel safe, listened to, and understood.
