Unreal City

Unreal City was an art show in London, England devoted to the public display of Augmented reality art which ran from 8 December 2020 to 5 January 2021. The show featured work by artists Koo Jeong A, Nina Chanel Abney, Darren Bader, Marco Brambilla, Olafur Eliasson, Cao Fei, KAWS, Alicja Kwade, Bjarne Melgaard, and Tomás Saraceno.[1][2][3][4]

To view the works, an individual would scan a QR code on one of several red life buoys in the River Thames with a tablet or smartphone. Immediately, the digital sculptures would appear on the screen, with many hovering above the river.[5][6]
