Accidentally Wes Anderson Exhibition

A cinematic touch in Wes(t) London.

On multiple occasions, while scrolling through Instagram, I’ve been seeing advertisements for

The Accidentally Wes Anderson Exhibition.

The advertisements were definitely very appealing and when I saw my friend post a story of the exhibition, I knew it was a sign for me to go.

Situated in South Kensington, this exhibition is a must for film enthusiasts (or if you’re just interested) when exploring the West of London.

The moment you set foot into the place, it feels like you are transported into a film with all the colourful sets and walls.

This exhibition was curated by Wes Anderson fans, each room has a theme that lets you imagine that you are traveling in different parts of the world at that moment.

The photos, relating to the themes, are vibrant, picturesque places that seem to come from a film, but they are actually real places that Wes Anderson fans have been to and snapped. This touch only makes this exhibition more unique as you get to experience the world through the cinematic lens of creatives.

There are also replicated sets of some photos where you can take pictures with your friends to really immerse yourself in your journey through the exhibition.

The exhibition provides a tripod for visitors so all your friends can be in the picture or if you’re by yourself, then you don’t have to be placed in an awkward situation of tapping someone and asking for your picture to be taken!

However, I do wish that this exhibition was more interactive as they have portrayed in their advertisements, but it was still an enjoyable experience for only £13 (student tickets).

At the very end of the exhibition, they have set up a special “post office” where you can send e-postcards to whoever you want.

The best part is that this is free and you can send as many as you want!

If this exhibition sounds like something you would enjoy, then head over to their ticket page to get your tickets now! Hurry while tickets last because it’s only here until the middle of May.

PSA: There is a small booking fee when you purchase the tickets.
