Stumbled upon this as we crossed through to the park, great to see representation at the Morris, which is currently exhibiting the work of Althea McNish - a member of the Caribbean Art Movement (1966-72). The backdrop would have been South African Apartheid, the Black Power Movement as well as the politics of the newly independent English Caribbean. The exhibition covers two floors and includes Althea’s bold textile patterns as well as a recreation of her bacheloret showroom for the Ideal Home Exbition. (William Morris Gallery)
