Dot London, the capital’s unique domain name, has launched a multi-media pop-up gallery in Covent Garden to showcase 20 London-based artists and the benefits of registering a Dot London domain.
About
Situated next to The Royal Opera House, Dot London’s temporary gallery, The Digital Dot Room, is open until the end of January and will host ‘dot’ inspired work from 20 contemporary artists including renowned conceptual artist Duggie Fields; influential and uncompromising duo, The DNA Factory; and urban art collective, Greyworld.
Visitors be able to search for their own Dot London web address, and view digital pieces by the artists on a large ‘floating’ 2m diameter dot – in a cool, cinematic environment.
The digital artworks created for the project include, ‘On Target’, a swinging Sixties inspired dot, by graphic designer and illustrator Rian Hughes; ‘Dotted Fox’, a seemingly randomly arrangement of smaller dots to create the image of a walking fox, by Yoni Alter; and ‘Happy Dot’, a bright yellow smile evoking the phrase “Turn that frown upside down” by contemporary artist, Stuart Semple.
