Image/text poster series appearing on rail platforms between London Paddington and Penzance, Cornwall – the route of the former ‘flower train’ that took West Country flowers to market. Bradley’s images of the hidden places and spaces of the remaining trade are paired with her texts suggestive of mutable connectivity between town and country, artist and subject. At the end of the track, Penzance, one final image was a giveaway to visitors. All posters were presented together in the gallery.
