In 2010, Green co-founded Duovision Arts with James Lawler to spotlight overlooked artists, especially from the LGBTQ community. Duovision has exhibited work by Duggie Fields, Marc Almond, Pam Hogg, Jarvis Cocker, and others. In 2023, their Outlaws show at the Fashion and Textile Museum highlighted 1980s alternative designers linked to Leigh Bowery’s Taboo club. Their latest exhibition at the Museum of Liverpool celebrates Holly Johnson’s cultural legacy.


Green’s work bridges club culture, visual art, and archival storytelling—championing the creative and the unconventional with style and substance.
