ART HAS
MORE TO TELL.
Bring gallery pieces to life. Canvas Alive extends the moment held in an artwork through animation, sound and interaction, inviting visitors to look closer and stay a little longer.
HEROES.
Small marks.
Extraordinary worlds.
IMAGINATION
LEAVES
THE FRAME.
HEROES is a superhero exhibit full of bold colour, expressive lines and larger-than-life personalities. Capes, lightning bolts and impossible powers turn familiar figures into a world with its own handmade energy.
Through Canvas Alive, the exhibit explores what happens when that energy begins to move. A cape can catch the wind. A flash of electricity can travel across the page. A character can hold a pose, then suddenly spring into action. The drawn lines and paper texture remain part of the experience, carrying the character of the artwork into motion.
The aim is a moment of discovery: an image that first invites you to look, then gives you a reason to look again.

EVERY LINE
HAS A LIFE
OF ITS OWN.
The exhibit’s visual language lives in its uneven outlines, vivid colours and expressive proportions. These details give each figure a personality before it moves.
The different layouts explore how the characters can share a frame, gather as an ensemble, or fill a gallery wall.

TO EXPERIENCE
AN ARTWORK.
For artists and galleries, Canvas Alive creates a companion to the piece on the wall: a short animated encounter that visitors can discover on their own devices. Motion and sound reveal another part of the story while keeping the artwork at its centre.
