Paul Robinson, known professionally as LUAP, presents his largest solo show to date in an expansive three-floor unused retail space kindly provided by Great Portland Estates, developing their partnership which began with the successful window displays. The exhibition, curated by Llamas, will include a large variety of works which deepen LUAP’s investigation into mental health, well-being and connection embodied by his now iconic Pink Bear character. The artwork will span photography, painting, installation, sound, and film, offering a complex and multifaceted exploration of experiences of mental illness, recovery, and joyful discovery.
Each floor of the exhibition will investigate a different face of LUAP’s work. The first floor presents an overwhelming sensory experience in the form of a large-scale pink-fur installation, complete with flower displays and little pink teddy bears. This initial section sets the emotionally immersive tone for the rest of the exhibition.L UAP plans to donate the pink fur, used to make the installation, to an appropriate charitable organisation to prevent waste.
