Told through photography and in the participants’ own words, FONDS is a project about how the evocative objects we keep connect us to the people and places we love. In collaboration with Greater Govanhill community magazine, people who have a connection to the neighbourhood were asked to share an object that means something to them.
From Pakistan to Syria, Turkey to Rwanda the objects featured represent stories of migration, transformation, love, and resilience.
FONDS was created in 2022 by Morwenna Kearsley, who worked on this project during a two-year community-based residency with Street Level Photoworks as part of their Culture Collective programme. It was developed in partnership with Greater Govanhill community magazine and Thriving Govanhill.
We’re delighted that Morwenna will be coming along to the gallery on Friday 4th July between 6pm and 8pm to launch this exhibition and to talk about her fascinating work.
