"Unreal City", an art exhibition with a difference, is being curated along the south bank of London's River Thames.

It can only be viewed through an augmented reality phone app.

By scanning the QR codes on red buoys along the riverside walking tour, art fans can uncover the digital artworks.

Isabela Herig manages the marketing for exhibition curator Acute Art.

Herig: "This piece is quite interesting also because some of the elements of the table are interactive."

However, "Unreal City" allows the public a "dematerialised" method of appreciating art.

The exhibition has been curated by Daniel Birbaum.

He recognises many lack easy access to large exhibitions and sees AR as a way of exposing them to art.

Birbaum: "One of the ideas has been to democratise art, to, in a way, make art visible in places where normally it's not visible.
