Introducing 'Community' with Chalk and Mural Projects by Art for After Hours

Latest Project: ‘SUBMERGE’ Marine Science Festival at Hudson River Park Pier 84

Art for After Hours worked with the SUBMERGE Marine Science Festival Team to create an interactive experience celebrating the wildlife of the Hudson River at Pier 84 in New York City.

Chalk drawing boards were prepared for young children who learned about local wildlife then drew upon two of the three plywood chalkboards shown.

Anthony Cappetto (pictured) of Art for After Hours created a display piece on the third plywood unit featuring a kestrel perched on a branch, an osprey in flight, and a snapping turtle upon a rock in the river.

Chalk Art with Still and Animated Augmented Reality (Live)

Yesterday, Wendy and I went out to one of our favorite testing places for Art for After Hours concepts using 3D street paintings or chalk art with animated models of our creation to see the effects live.

 

This is an extended video showing a number of locations displaying concepts as they progress…

As always, we would like to hear from those who can imagine an installation with hand drawn (or digital printed) art on pavement walls, both for an immersive experience with traditional art and emerging technologies. Contact us with the form below. Thanks.

4D Chalk Art Installations using 3D modeling, Animation with Augmented Reality

Over the winter, we have been working on interesting ways to blend chalk art (streetpainting), 3d modeling, animation, using augmented reality bringing traditional hand drawn or painted art and emerging technologies to our work.

We find these and expanding possibilities exciting as artists and to share with our clients. These are a few of the items we are working with along these lines.

Talk to us for creating a 4D project with hand drawn or digital art for printing, 3D modeling, still and animated scenes using augmented reality for your live/virtual event.

Creating digital installations using our 3D models and digital art as anamorphic illusions on ground and plane surfaces for a total illusion usable on a 3D curved surface at a convention or tradeshow booth.

Ground art can either be hand drawn or realized as digital art on vinyl substrate printed by your desired printer.

Example of hand drawn chalk over painted base coupled with still (art work in back) and animated bees colored in the colors of Ukraine for a special festival project in 2022.
