Publication 2021 – Livia Vourlakidou

GIFT SHOPS

Exploring material cultures and consumerism, Gift Shops is an experimental publication showcasing a variety of curated objects found in the souvenir shops and museum gift shops in Central London.​​​​​ 

Featuring photographs of the shops themselves which are captured on film, the book explores a variety of text and image which contemplate themes of materialism and object fetishism. This project is informed by my own research from literature and interviews which is compiled within the book, exploring why we are drawn to collecting objects which represent and remind us of our experiences. The last section of the book includes extracts of the personal experiences and memories that 74 people shared anonymously as part of my research.

An index can be found at the back identifying all items, prices and locations found if known.
