In an open, honest and often humorous way, contributors to this exhibition have shared memories and photographs of objects with special significance to them, telling diverse stories from Scotland’s Gypsy and Traveller population.
Salome Benidze is a poet from Georgia. She has written two collections, as well as a best-selling novel. She will share a brand-new chapbook of poems, I Wanted to Tell You, written in Georgian with English translations by the brilliant British poet Helen Mort (Division Street; No Map Could Show Them). The two poets will talk about their work, exploring the weird and wonderful things that happen when you carry poems from one language to another.
This welcoming, open session is for anyone who wants to discover what makes GWL tick, in discussion with the people who run it.
