Electric Catwalk

Public Art Commission for Kensington+Chelsea Art Week

Electric Catwalk is a celebration of bold optimism. Expressed through joyful colours and playful patterns, this electrifying public art installation invites visitors to recharge their energy in the most decadent way.

Inspiration

For this street takeover placemaking art, I’ve taken inspiration from visionary eras—from the glamour of Art Deco, to the empowering fashion of Biba, and the Victorian electrical inventor R.E.B. Crompton, whose blue plaque graces Kensington Court, where this public art takes place.
