Cultural initiative Art of London has launched ‘Brighter Future’ - interactive art installations from up-and-coming artists chosen by a panel from the world of art, headed up by famed comedian and Royal Academy artist, Harry Hill, whose work will also feature within the programme.
Art of London and NGX invited artists to submit their interpretation of building a better, brighter future in the city. Artists were selected to have their installations publicly come to life in some of London’s most iconic locations, such as Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus. This outdoor exhibition will be on display from August 2022.
Artists who won the funding include Zarah Hussain, who combines contemporary digital art with hand-drawn Islamic geometry; Sam Williams, a visual artist and creative producer, who creates immersive environments that encourage people to ‘find their play’; and Fiona Quadri, a multidisciplinary artist with a focus on photography and illustration, who hopes her interactive installation will illustrate London’s uniqueness.
