Inspired by visionary moments in design and innovation around Kensington High Street - from the glamour of Art Deco, to the empowering fashion of BIBA, and the electric ingenuity of R.E.B. Crompton, whose blue plaque adorns Kensington Court - the Electric Catwalk radiates bold optimism. With vibrant colours and joyful patterns, this captivating installation invites visitors to recharge their energy in the most decadent way.
The new design by artist MAMIMU was selected through the Opportunity Kensington BID Open Call, and presented in collaboration with Kensington + Chelsea Art Week (KCAW) and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
