Off-White's Virgil Abloh and Ben Kelly aka the.photo.kid, teamed up to create an installation at 180 The Strand.
Art Installation + Nightclub
The whole exhibition seemed, dystopian, like a Mad Max setting.
You entered the exhibition, through a purple lit, tilted, broken hallway, and enter the 'nightclub' through plastic door curtains.
Broken walls, piles of sand and coloured lights all catch your eye.
Music is playing throughout. As you walk around the nightclub set up is realised, There is a counter for a bar, a raised stage for a DJ, and another for a band or performer.
The edge of the stage is lined with light reflective bollards, the black plastic ones you see on roads.
In the corners of the rooms there are old box TV's, playing footage from the streets of New York, and videos from parties, mirrors are placed to reflect them.

It felt eerily quiet, and seemed deserted.
Neon bars of light, lit up the room.
When you left the music faded and instead you hear the chirps and tweets of birds as if it was the crack of dawn, like it would be if you were leaving a nightclub.
