'Plastic factory (no place for me)'
Thomas Langley also presents an offsite project in Picadilly Arcade, as a counterpart to his space in the RA Schools Show 2018.
Plastic factory (no place for me) is a hybrid commercial artistic situation. Nestled in amongst the jewellers and outfitters of the historic walkway, the work explores class and contemporary clichés.
