Problem Statement

  • Context

    Given an opportunity to explore new possibilities and directions for developing future (or response to current) Interactions and as such will be somewhat experimental.

  • Identified Challenge

    Since the pandemic, plenty of artists have been trying to work online and explore the digital format of exchanging art, and the demand for buying (fan) art has been increasing. However, there is no well-developed website or a platform for artists (particularly fan art based artists) and buyers to make connection and selling/buying arts.

  • Opportunity

    How might we create a seamless art e-commerce platform to directly connect the artists and the buyers in a deep level for a cohesive purchasing experience.
