Dubai’s Burj Khalifa is now accepting submissions by designers and aspiring artists to have their artworks displayed in a special LED light show.
Are you an artist looking for the perfect gallery to show off your stellar designs? Or, have you always dreamed of having your creations shown off to the world and immortalised forever? If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions, then today’s your lucky day!
Announced in a press release dated November 24, the world’s tallest building—Dubai’s Burj Khalifa—is now accepting submissions by designers and aspiring artists to have their artworks displayed in a special LED light show projected on the exteriors of the skyscraper. Named the Burj Khalifa Open Call, the initiative aims to enable aspiring artists to showcase their work to a larger audience.
Entries can be submitted via a month-long competition ending on December 31, 2020. Individuals or groups from any part of the world can submit their light-based or 3D-mapping designs on their official website. Further specifications on the design formats and dimensions, too, can be found on the same website. To further ascertain the chances of winning, the organisers are encouraging entrants to share their designs on their social media platforms, tagging the Emirati building’s official handles. The winning entries will then be decided on a weekly basis, post which it will be splashed across 1,09,252 square meters of the Burj Khalifa.
Notably, this Light Up show previously beat Hong Kong’s Guinness World Record for the largest light and sound show on a single structure, as per the release.
