A Cup Of Tea In Cheshire Street

The work below is based on a photograph I took in a cafe in Cheshire Street, East London in the 1980s. The subject was eating a plate of chips during the Sunday afternoon Brick Lane market. I would photograph the market regularly most Sundays and would often take a break for a cup of tea. The cafe was always full of interesting characters. In those day you could get a cup of tea for 20p.
