Beyond Canvas

What it does

Beyond Canvas goes beyond canvas to help artists expand their boundaries. I'm a fine arts student myself and have aspired living as an artist. The reality is: no network means no connections to galleries and no chance of being able to exhibit your paintings. I thought about this unfairness and decided make Beyond Canvas.

There are two parts to this app that make it a platform. It provides benefits to both sellers(artists) and buyers. We're not talking about monumental priced art piece buyers but an ordinary person who has interest in collecting arts. First, with ARCore, the app provides limitless stage of exhibition for artists. Even if you are in Austin, you can exhibit your painting in the middle of Paris and who knows how much more you can go with this potential? For buyers on the other hand, the ARCore provides a system where they can view the art through their phone directly and even try it in their houses.

Additionally, Gemini 1.5 Pro has provided some key features to making this platform work. By using the API, the app is able to not only allow artists their works around the world, but it helps artists pinpoint cities to exhibit on. Not only that, Gemini helps to set the range of price for paintings. This is extremely helpful when the new artists are not aware of how much their works cost.

And finally, Gemini helps to make the storytelling of the artworks possible for users with disabilities for they read the art, with eyes of their hearts. So...what's your story?
