Stories of people through objects they love. Come with us into the photography studio to hear stories of people told through their most precious objects. Exposed over eight minutes, people from around Govanhill, Glasgow share stories of migration, transformation, love, and resilience. The project is a collaboration between Greater Govanhill community magazine and photographer Morwenna Kearsley who worked on the project as part of her Culture Collective residency at Street Level Photoworks. Produced by Flora Zajicek. Supported by National Lottery.
