The Unfolding Desire Assembly is presented as part of the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Art of Wellbeing initiative, in collaboration with Griffin Art Projects and Empty Space Art Studio Society. The Assembly is generously supported by the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region (Italy) and the Canada Council for the Arts, whose ongoing commitment to artistic research and creation in Canada we gratefully acknowledge.

We also acknowledge the organizations that supported the Unfolding Desire project in Trieste (2025), with special thanks to the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region for its generous contribution. The project was realized by AiR Trieste and Cultural Inventory, in partnership with La Collina Social Cooperative, Trieste Contemporanea, and Griffin Art Projects.
