. Huxtable's second solo exhibition, ''Juliana Huxtable'', opened at ''Project Native Informant'' in London, England in October 2017.

The show continues Huxtable's exploration into conspiracy theories and paranoia, subcultures, and identity but on a more humorous note. Fashion also plays a major role throughout Huxtable's practice as this show highlights. Huxtable has referenced Jose Esteban-Muñoz's "Disidentification" as a major inspiration.
