“Plastique Fantastique: Mars Year Zero” DILSTON GALLERY (Southwark Park, London) official review with video
After being greeted in a modern glassy entrance, throw away all hope.
You’ll now to enter the actual gallery - a window-barred church, reek of moulds and dampness as if we’re back in the underground factories or the dungeons we’ve been so used to. The more you’re to realize it being a futuristic space station, the more you’re to take a sniff to a past of a future of a semi-functional, hard-wired, mystical, information, system.
The fantastique tells the acrid tale of an imaginary survival set with imaginary metaphors involving imaginary golems and dragons. The two ends of the space are fitted with robots speaking with an eccentric grammatical system. As you can see, they’re really annoying.
The cracking concrete and loveless panels add an extra layer of thematic décor to our dystopia.
LOCATION. The Dilston Gallery is as much as a “forgotten child” of Southwark Park, and the outdated maps inside aren’t helping.
Nearest station: Surrey Quays. Exit the station and walk west along Lower Road. Enter the park and gradually turn southwest, along running tracks, until you reach the park’s very southwestern tip.
The Dilston Gallery is a church-like building at the edge of the lawn. Enter through the attached glassy structure.
