4D Pavement Chalk Art Installations Initiative with 31st Avenue Open Streets in Astoria NY in 2021

During 2021, the community became our 4D canvas and an extended experience bringing street painting art to many who had never seen our art form previously.

Here are the projects we did as public art for our community :

 

4D Animated Augmented Reality Environments GoldfishBowl with Koi Pond Chalk Art (July 2021)

4D Animated Augmented Reality Environments: Harry the Chalk Grasshopper and AR Friends (August 2021)

 

4D Animated Augmented Reality Environments: ‘Jack and the Ghost Bats’ (Halloween 2021)

 

4D Animated Augmented Reality Environments: ‘Gin the Gingerbread Santa’ (December 2021)

 

What’s Next for 2022…

Coming in Spring of 2022 we will take everything seen to this point to the next level with a new immersive metaverse experience from our other company, Innovative Street Painting Group. This will be a hybrid mixing of virtual and physical spaces. Watch the ispg-inc.com space…

Check Out the 4D Pool Party!! Augmented Reality, Chalk Art

4D Animated Augmented Reality with 3D Chalk Art by Anthony Cappetto and Art for After Hours in Westfield NJ

Art for After Hours brought a full 4D animated augmented reality driven installation to the community of Westfield NJ using animated dancing characters, our own hand drawn AR overlays, and traditional hand drawn chalk art featuring this 3D party pool and a series of hand drawn chalk vignettes located around the downtown Westfield area. Some images were set up to have an AR component as part of our weeklong project.

We had a great time sharing our excitement about the blending of traditional art and emerging technologies with the visitors who saw and participated ‘diving’ and dancing with the animated, dynamic characters during the event weekend itself.

Community- 3D Street painting/Chalk Art in a New Time

Hello Everyone,

In times past, street painting or chalk art was publicly seen in good as well as uncertain times.

As everyone knows worldwide we are in the times that are uncertain.

We are choosing to work with clients who partner with art, in our case our 3D art and murals to reach virtually, indoors, and in new ways that are safe for all.

Our thoughts are with our community of New York City and our world for an eventual overcoming and someday thriving world with the pandemic behind us all.

Over the last summer, Art for After Hours was asked to create a 3D street painting artwork to be used as part of a nationally presented commercial that is now in the public realm.

Our artwork as always, starts with a hand drawn sketch. Many of them were considered; then after refinements from the team, we came up with this idea and we were underway.

During our session, the sketch became a 3D street painting rendered on the surface in chalk.

The final commercial shoot showed the 3D piece in a view which worked with the Director’s vision for the results desired.

Although our portion was for a split second, we were able to be a part of a commercial with an important message and we are proud to be a part of this project. The production team was great and the project was fun as well.

Watch for the commercial in your area to see in full.

'Respect Existence...' 3D Street Art Public Art Installation, Baltimore MD

‘Respect Existence’, was a 3D street art installation completed in Baltimore MD to call attention to the children of parents and family members seeking asylum in the United States but being held in detention facilities similar in principle to the internment camps holding Japanese, Italian, and German Americans during World War II.

Above in the work, one sees the four children detained on a metal bench facing the US Flag, upside down, indicating distress. Each child is holding part of a mylar blanket issued to keep them warm, draped over a landscape at the Rio Grande between Mexico and the United States separated from freedom by prison bars.

Beyond the prison bars is a Trump Wall free world with freedom and fairness for all, typically the policy of our Nation of Immigrants.

#Respect #Resist #Remember

Prior to our live 3D street painting project, we were developing a 4D animated augmented reality component positioning animated children holding placards of #Respect and #Remember while an ICE guard was programmed to walk menacingly at the base of the art.

This was a moving piece for us and for the Baltimore community. Despite a weekend of inclement weather, sometimes part of live outdoor work; we were proud to share this artistic statement. #Respect #Remember
