About Artloom Applikazzjoni Mobbli

ArtLoom hija applikazzjoni mobbli li tgħaqqad artisti emerġenti ma' kollezzjonisti tal-arti. Il-bejgħ tax-xogħol jista' jħossu diffiċli għal artisti ġodda, filwaqt li kollezzjonisti ġodda ħafna drabi ma jafux minn fejn jibdew. ArtLoom jieħu ispirazzjoni mill-midja soċjali u mill-applikazzjonijiet tal-ħbiberija. Il-kollezzjonisti jesploraw ix-xogħol tal-arti f'galerija virtwali immersiva u jirċievu selezzjoni ta' kuljum ibbażata fuq id-drawwiet tagħhom tal-esplorazzjoni. Il-profili tal-artisti jippreżentaw l-istorja wara kull xogħol. Assistent taċ-chat b'intelliġenza artifiċjali jappoġġja l-komunikazzjoni bejn l-artisti u l-kollezzjonisti. ArtLoom huwa ddisinjat għal apparat iOS.

Design Challenge: How can we design a dedicated, user-friendly platform that facilitates seamless connections between emerging artists and casual collectors?

Key research questions:

- What are the biggest barriers preventing emerging artists from selling their work?
- What motivates casual collectors to purchase art, and what challenges do they face?
- How do existing platforms fall short in serving these groups?

This research aims to uncover insights that can shape a solution tailored to the needs of emerging artists and casual collectors, fostering a more inclusive and vibrant art market.
Research: Utilized digital survey services to analyze data on the challenges and needs of emerging artists and art collectors. Findings highlighted key challenges, including connecting with collectors, understanding pricing strategies, and effectively communicating their art to a broader audience.
