The William Morris Gallery's first major commission: a Morris-inspired photographic exhibition by Turner Prize nominee Yinka Shonibare MBE.
The Victorian age, the legacy of Empire and the global textile trade are central themes in the work of Shonibare. In this new exhibition, The William Morris Family Album, the internationally acclaimed artist turns his attention to William Morris, by inviting Waltham Forest residents to help recreate photographs of Morris’s family, he encourages viewers to reflect on the realities of equality in both Morris's time and our own.
