Delusions of Grandeur steps inside the mind of David Parkins, narrating his first hand account of being sectioned following a truly devastating bi polar breakdown.

His story walks you through his sojourn at Bradgate Mental Health Unit, from solitary confinement, underpants, hats, falling in love and wait, did someone say escaping to a champagne bar?!

Multidisciplinary artist David Parkin presents a funny, fearless installation that tells you everything you didn’t want to know about being sectioned.

In 2015 David Parkin suffered his first bi-polar manic episode and was sectioned for four months. ‘David Parkin’s Delusions of Grandeur’ is a multidisciplinary installation that investigates his stay at the NHS’s pleasure from a cacophony of mediums. Premiering in 2019 at The Attenborough Centre (Leicester) to an overwhelming public response, it quickly became the art centre’s most well attended artwork … ever. Now it is coming to London!

Step inside David’s unbalanced mind and listen to songs he wrote and recorded while in the Bradgate Mental Health Unit, read about moments in the ward (escaping to a Champagne Bar, falling madly and obsessively in love and being punched by a fellow inmate) and check out David’s alternative vision of seclusion.

Brilliant communication from start to finish. Mike had endless patience for the many questions we asked. The guides provided were easy to follow and super helpful (the video guides are a must watch too). Our order of hardback illustrated children's books was delivered expertly packaged and on time. As for the finished product itself - stunning - a real joy to finally hold, beautifully made and perfectly printed! We couldn't have asked for more. Well, we did - we instantly placed an order for paperback children's colouring books too, which we are equally as happy with. Look forward to working with Ex Why Zed again in the future.
