The show will include 20 photographs taken at Sandra’s home in Bread Street in the 1980s which have been selected and curated by the archive team.

Audiences will also be able to access Sandra’s vast book collection, which will be presented in an installation that re-creates Bread Street in the gallery space, and listen to her music collection.
