Alias Trate is a London-based outsider artist, working under a pseudonym that refers to the human traits he paints.

The experience of art has changed dramatically over the past year. The pandemic and enforced confinement made many of us shift to more virtual encounters, from meetings to cocktail classes.

With this latest body of work, Alias Trate invites the viewers into his fantastical world, where past and present, the mythical and real, coexist.

“We wanted to recreate the idea of entering into the artist’s space, hence the drone became a way to get the feeling of a bird’s eye view into someone’s creative process”.

The pandemic has altered how we live, work and make art. It’s also changed how we visit exhibitions. Online viewing rooms and 360 galleries have become the norm, with many institutions porting entire programmes online. The question is: what’s next?

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, there's been a wave of innovation around the world geared toward creating more virtual experiences for people to enjoy from the comfort, and safety, of their own homes.

Lockdown may have forced the closure of art galleries across the country, but - in a digital age - not even a global pandemic can stop creativity. Here, we round up just ten of the best exhibitions to peruse and immerse yourselves in, online now…
