Giles Walker Creates Monster, by skAcid on Feb 19, 2019 18:23:04 GMT 1, Taking art out of the gallery and into the wilds, MONSTER, will be an art experience to remember.
As with Giles Walker’s impressive 'Last Supper', recently exhibited at The London Science Museum.
MONSTER will be a kinetic installation but, this time, of intense proportions. We need your support to help this artist build a totally relevant and immersive sculpture installation incorporating large scale animatronic figures and furniture choreographed into something resembling mechanical theatre.

Hope he gets the funding for his next one.

Giles Walker Creates Monster, by skAcid on Dec 7, 2020 17:28:56 GMT 1, Monster, the long awaited animatronic exhibition from Giles Walker has opened in Spitalfields. A full on immersive experience. It’s a show which combines some of Walker’s dystopian robotics with a soundtrack that swamps the senses. Built within a covered former stable courtyard opposite the Spitalfields Market, it’s been years in the planning.

A member of the Mutoid Waste Collective. Walker has been creating sculptures out of scrap metal since the 80’s. Over the years his unique talent has evolved to incorporate robotics and electrics. The sound and the lighting then combine with his creations to create a kind of dystopian play. The result is a dark but powerful immersion into a kind of shadow world.
Monster Exhibition
Originally planned for a warehouse in Deptford that was the first of a number of venues to fall through. The space needed to create something like Monster doesn’t come easily. The pandemic of course didn’t help either. Working with the gallerist and artist Ben Oakley they eventually found a prime spot in Spitalfields. Committing to open just after the second UK lockdown it was another gamble in a project littered with them. It paid off.
The actual Monster of this epic Giles Walker experience is hard to determine. There are so many of them. Taken together the installation paints a picture of a broken world. Thrown amongst the robotic sculptures are books. Reminders of all the knowledge we’ve discarded along the way. Three giant blind mice with shards of glass for whiskers stride forward carrying the world behind them. Wandering aimlessly and destructively they are symbols of the bureaucracy of state which control our lives.
