A Funeral For Heterosexuality Arrives in London’s Spitalfields

PORTALS launched its first public‑art kiosk in Spitalfields Market, converting a 1966 Soviet‑era K67 kiosk into a 24‑hour micro‑gallery. The inaugural exhibition features Judy Maxwell‑McNicol’s sculptural piece “RIP my heterosexuality which died on the family computer,” a gravestone‑like installation with a CRT monitor displaying a Google search for “girls kissing.” Visitors can place fresh flowers on the monument, while a DJ set and cocktails from queer brand Madame F accompany the display. The work quickly amassed over 15,000 Instagram likes, highlighting its viral resonance.
