From the 1950s onwards, her vibrant designs for furnishing and fashion fabrics drew on the tropical flora and fauna of her native Trinidad and a 'tropicalised' take on the British landscape, ranging from natural imagery to lively abstract patterns bursting with energy and joy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAbout the Exhibition \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWilliam Morris Gallery will present \u003ci\u003e\u003ca title=\"Women in Print 150 years of Liberty Textiles\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wmgallery.org.uk\/event\/women-in-print\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWomen in Print: 150 years of Liberty Textiles\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003c\/i\u003eConceived in partnership with Liberty Fabrics on the occasion of the design house’s 150th anniversary, this major exhibition will highlight the pivotal role and contributions of women textile designers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTracing the rich history of Liberty Fabrics, the exhibition will survey the evolving influence and status of women in textiles over the past 150 years. \u003ci\u003eWomen in Print\u003c\/i\u003e will bring together iconic patterns by designers such as Althea McNish, Susan Collier and Sarah Campbell, and Lucienne Day, alongside previously overlooked names, celebrating how women have been — and continue to be — at the heart of Liberty’s creative innovations and ongoing relevance today.
