Object history
After funding for the radical screen-printing collective the Lenthall Road workshop was withdrawn, photographer Gonul Zeki used the workshop as a commercial enterprise to print T-shirts and other merchandise for the developing lesbian and gay community, in particular for lesbians who were less catered for.
Gonul’s unique brand of irreverent humour and slogans became popular and far reaching. In 1998 The Workshop was advertised as offering the largest selection of lesbian and gay t-shirts in Europe.
