Fortress artwork with augmented reality created for the collective All Together Now, promoted by Merc’Art during the 2020 COVID19 pandemic.

When the COVID19 pandemic sent Portugal into lock down we knew we had to do something to help the women and men who worked in healthcare. Those who were sacrificing everything to help us and couldn’t be in their home: their own fortress.

fortress

concept

So when Merc’Art asked us to create a new artwork to be sold as a special edition print to help the Hospital Egas Moniz in Lisbon get the funding to build a new canopy for the ER area we had to say yes!

We then create the artwork “Fortress” as a way to show we can beat this virus by doing our best and that best was keeping us and other safes by staying at home in our “fortress” so those who couldn’t stay at home could do their job in a more easy and safe way.

This is a digital artwork with augmented reality you can see using your smartphone with the app Artivive. Point your phone at the image and see the augmented reality.

ALL TOGETHER NOW

The concept was straight forward: All Together Now. A project that unites 5 artists for one cause.

Merc’Art reached us as well four other amazing artists to create what we were feeling in these difficult times. And what we felt was an immense sense of security and guilt by being safe at our home, something others couldn’t do.
