One day they’ll make a movie about the Diamonds and how they stood by their Indigenous teammate – at Tasmania, Australia

the whole human race from HIV/AIDS. Tragically, the artwork has been shrouded after the gallery received homophobic threats. Thus plays out the stigma and phobia that the artwork sets out to challenge. #HIVScienceAsArt @iasociety @ViiVHC @MetroArtsAU @BrentAllanKidd
