God's Own Junkyard, Art gallery in Walthamstow, London, UK.
The gallery displays thousands of neon signs and artworks in a warehouse space, covering walls from floor to ceiling with illuminated creations.
The space began as Electro Signs in 1952 by Richard Bracey, later transformed by his son Chris Bracey into an art gallery for neon installations.
The collection includes neon signs from former Soho establishments and pieces featured in films like Captain America, Eyes Wide Shut, and Blade Runner.
The gallery opens Friday and Saturday from 11:00 to 21:00, Sunday from 11:00 to 18:00, with free entry and an on-site café.
The electrical cost to maintain this neon art collection exceeds £3,000 monthly, making it an energy-intensive artistic installation.
