Google Kicks off FIFA Women’s World Cup 2019 with This Cheery Doodle
As FIFA 2019 Women’s World Cup makes its first move today, Google Doodles celebrates the fervour in such a unique way.
The FIFA Football World Cup 2019 for women gets going today, June 7, 2019. And Google didn’t miss the opportune time to celebrate this sporting spirit with its Doodle. And guess what, this first in the row Google Doodle is the flag bearer of 24 more, which will be following in the next one month, to capture the local excitement.
The 24 creative Doodles will be illustrated by different artists, each from 24 competing countries in the FIFA World Cup. Because only a particular country national can bring forth the authentic enthusiasm and heritage of her motherland, in her works.
Now, there is a reason, I used ‘her’ instead of being gender neutral while speaking of an artist. The reason is of course special. Google has chosen 24 female illustrators from each of the participating nations to commemorate this Women’s World Cup, and of course, the worldwide women empowerment.
The artists whose works will be featured as Google Doodles are:
Argentina - Xoana Herrera
Australia - Sophie Beer
Brazil - Laura Lannes
Cameroon - Reine Dibussi
Canada - Jenn Liv
Chile - Luisa Rivera
China - Lisk Feng
England - Priya Mistry
