I Will Always Be Looking For You – A Queer Anthology on Arab Art gathers the works of 31 artists from 13 Arabic-speaking countries, with literary contributions by 24 commissioned writers from across the region and its diaspora.
The writing spans a wide range of genres—poetry, essays, fiction, experimental text—each in direct dialogue with the visual artwork it accompanies.
Together, the works document and expand the definition of queerness in the Arab world—not as a fixed identity, but as a generative force, a method, a rupture, and a refusal. It represents the first intentional gathering of intergenerational artistic voices in one volume, forming an archive of art that is both intimate and collective.
Commissioned by celebrated Lebanese feminist collective Haven for Artists.
