Reed + Rader: Feeding.
NYC based creatives Reed & Radar were featured in Amelia's Magazine issue 08 way back in 2007. Now they are holding their first UK solo exhibition, an homage to their love of dinosaurs in moving digital art. They say: 'We want you to take an adventure back to the dinosaur times and enter a tropical jungle filled with tall grass and foliage – GIF animations showing different characters, a video of colorful dinosaurs dancing to dubstep, a side-scrolling video game-like adventure to explore and meet new friends…'
The Brooklyn-based duo will be transforming 18 Hewett Street's clean white space into a land before time. Paper grass foliage will reveal hidden dinosaurs and large scale projections will set the scene for Reed + Rader’s free standing dinosaur. You'll be offered headphones and invited to dance along with the dubstep dinosaurs in front of you. All artworks will be for sale from 18 Hewett Street and the Protein Store. Looks fab!
