In this episode, I speak to Rose Sinclair the co-curator of the Althea McNish exhibitions that is currently on in nearby Walthamstow. It is the first time, many of us get to appreciate what an influential designer Althea was - someone who lived 50 years among us on West Green Road. Althea, originally from Trinidad moved to London in the late 1950s and became an incredibly successful textile designer. We talk about the breadth of her work, the context of her work and her love of Ikea Tottenham.
