Curated by Georges Jacotey, the online gallery, called #0000FF, shows only works of art featuring the same blue colour as the Facebook banner.
Original works of art created exclusively for #0000FF are displayed in photo galleries and rely on the site’s vertical scrolling interface. Found images are posted on the gallery wall.
