London Chip Shop

Artist and recovery anorexic Lucy Sparrow has opened a chippy where everything has been felt.

Interactive creations include hand-stitched fish and chips, including seed-one boxes, salt tubs, vinegar bottles and mayonnaise, ketchup pouches, signs and menu.

Overall, there are 65,000 individual hand-made pieces, including 15 different chip shapes in five different colors.

Bourdon Street Chippy is aimed at an indifferent, tactile revaluation of one of the most loved institutions in Britain.

For six weeks, Mefair is in Lindsay Ingram Gallery in Central London, and follows the 2021 exhibition of Sparrow, Borden Street Chemist.

The artist revealed in June that she was struggling with Anorexia since her teenage age and said that she had considered how it has shaped her work.

“My relationship with food has always impressed my art, both are unbreakable,” he said.

“Over time, I understood that my practice had become a way to manage difficult feelings. Art is both my outlet and my inspiration to live well.”

He has created the life-size version of the first corner shops, supermarkets, New York Bodegas and pharmacies.

Ingram said that Sparrows blurred the lines between the performance and the establishment art.

“Lucy is one of the most important and meaningful artists of its generation,” she said.

The free exhibition opens on 1 August and then from Wednesday to Sunday week from September 14, as well as the bank holiday will run till Monday, August 25.
