Gwendolyn Rowlands


The Shopper's Tale - Gwendolyn Rowlands walked with her trolley to Bromley in Kent. One in a series of 'significant journeys' for her, this walk was to the site of her former childhood home. On the route she asked people to give her objects to put in her trolley in return for a symbol of pilgrimage.

On the day Gwen returned to the market amidst much excitment, at the end of the day, here she unpacked her trolley and showed photographs of all the people who had given her objects and contributed to her tale. Gwen's real media file shows a section of her tale as she unpacks the objects and relates the associated stories.
