Le Brixton Garbage Therapy Part 1 Project 2019 Minh Le Central Saint Martins, UAL | UK Le Brixton Garbage Therapy is an imaginative collaboration between Yoko Ono and Wes Anderson, which seeks to bring back the historic theatrical culture of Brixton, while concurrently raising social awareness of plastic pollution and gentrification in the area. To do this, LBGT fuses two diverse programmes - a recycling facility and an immersive theatre - and exploits the symmetrical spatial qualities to interact with the visitors. By situating Japanese architecture in Brixton, we question our audiences ‘Are we in Brixton?’ as a form of using performance art to raise political awareness. At first glance, this might seem like the definition of ‘gentrification’. However, apart from helping to clean the area’s plastic pollution, LBGT raises the knowledge of plastic recycling; re-celebrates the long forgotten historical theatrical scenery of Brixton and turns the area into an urban scale performance stage through its theatrical exterior and interior, which was particularly inspired by Japanese architecture. In addition to all of these, LBGT seeks to clean up Brixton once forgotten blood line, the Effra River. Tutor(s)
