Woven faces open up at the Klimt Villa
Klimt Villa
The Klimt Villa in Vienna, the reconstructed building around Gustav Klimt's last studio, showed digitally woven tapestries by Spencer Chalk-Levy in July 2017 in cooperation with ARCC.art. The tapestries hang unframed with their fringes loose, each one carrying a large stylised face, one of them above the grand piano in the salon. Visitors point a phone at a piece and a corner of the weave lifts away to show what sits behind it.

How a case like this gets made
- Pick what people will point their phone at: a painting, poster, pack, page or wall.
- Add the digital layer in the Artivive editor. Video, image, 3D model, sound. No code.
- Publish. Visitors open it in the free app or through a WebAR link, and enterprise campaigns run fully white label, under your own brand.
