Hollywood loves a plane crash on an uninhabited island. ‘Cast Away’, ‘Lost’, ‘Send Help’, and of course the fantastic book that inspired all of them – ‘The Lord of the Flies’ – explore what happens when man is left alone. Well, except ‘Lost’, which instead explored the limits of audience patience after taking a good idea and then abandoning it in favour of whatever would elongate the series the most.
Anyway, Loïc Gilbert is also exploring island survivalism through his brilliant brick-built diorama. The remains of a wrecked airliner offer his mini-figures some shelter, and there’s much more to see at his photostream where you can explore morality, instinct, and order versus anarchy. Or whatever it was ‘Lost’ ended up being about.
