Need some travel time away from your own four walls? Take a virtual trip to another place and explore some collections at the many art institutions making their displays and activities available online.
We can all get stuck in our own heads as artists, caught up in a narrative that we have built for ourselves, or created, through interactions at college, work or in our social lives. A little time away can refresh the page.
There are some fantastic artists out there, whose work is to be found through your home device. The labyrinth of websites and sub-pages that a viewer can journey through reveals sometimes confusingly twisting paths.
And increasingly, apparently wistful click-through travels can lead us out into colourful and playful courtyards online. In this lock-down, cultural institutions and organisations all around the world have been making digital galleries and events available. Here are a few links:
