about merc’art
The concept was born in 2016 and it was open until 2020 by the hand of Alexandra Quadros and was based in LX Factory in Lisbon.
It was called Merc’Art and it was a way to make art more accessible, so that everyone could be in contact with the beauty and happiness that comes from art.
It allowed privileged access, not only to pieces by up-and-coming artists, who showed their work for the first time, but also to originals by several renowned artists.
It was our second time exhibiting art in Merc’Art with 2 original artworks and a limited edition of 15 signed prints.
C10H8 & C10H180
C10H8 is an art collection of two original artworks with augmented reality and a set of prints created for Merc’art’s 2019 Exhibition in Lisbon.
The originals were both sold on the first weekend of being shown to the public and the prints were sold soon after.
Both artworks were printed in fine art paper and both have 22k gold leaf applied to them besides using a cutout technique to create different layers and textures. They also have augmented reality using the Artivive app.
