After delving into the Whitechapel’s archives, Yinka Shonibare created a collage using images from the gallery’s past, among them David Hockney and Picasso’s Guernica, and entwined them with representations of today’s East End – an image of hip-hop artist Dizzee Rascal and some sumptuous West African prints.

The screensaver is available in two formats, one of which should fit your screen size – 1920 x 1200 pixels (16:9 aspect ratio) and 1600 x 1200 pixels (4:3 aspect ratio). We’ve arranged it as a sequence of 10 images – nine close-ups in a range of colours, and one version of the finished work.
