Overview

Dedicated to the ideals of the second wave feminist movement, and with the founding objective of designing and producing images that explored and questioned the role of women in society - 'the personal is political' - See Red Women's Workshop was an alternative screen print collective focused on solidarity and revolt. Run as a Women's collective from 1974-1990, the group arose out of a period that saw not just the extension of both political and cultural concerns, but also the rise of community activism. See Red produced radical yet accessible campaigning designs in their signature raw screen-printing aesthetic, publishing their own material in the form of posters, calendars and cards alongside designs and commissions for other organisations.
