London Blogs - Tim Walker: Wonderful Things at V&A

So when researching my trip to London this was an exhibition that I wasn't that bothered about seeing but I am so glad that I visited. It was amazing and totally not what I expected! I am a massive Alice in Wonderland fan and when entering through the doors I felt that I had fallen down the rabbit hole. Tim Walker: Wonderful Things is running until 22nd March, 2020.

Out of the three exhibitions that I visited at the V&A this was definitely the largest and held my attention for the longest. As an art history student you are always told that you only really see something at a gallery for the first 20 minutes and then your mind is bombarded with information. This was not the case with this exhibition, it is a site-specific installation that is comprised of films, photographs, set design and massive props. It's really hard to know where to look next! Walker had access to the V&A collection when curating this exhibition and he uses his artwork to show his reactions to his favourite items from the collection. 

I think the best way to describe this exhibition is with photographs...

So what are you waiting for? Get to the V&A and take a trip down the surreal rabbit hole..
