Third Floor
Flowing Forces is an interactive immersive experience that takes place inside Art Windsor-Essex. The multimedia installation marks the second phase in an ongoing collaboration between the gallery and Moment Factory.
Inspired by the goal of harnessing creative innovation to reimagine the possibilities of cultural and educational experiences, Flowing Forces is designed to spark curiosity, encourage engagement, and resonate with a wide audience.
The multimedia installation draws upon Moment Factory’s expertise in projection mapping, AI-generated video content, mobile-based interactivity, and sound design to transform an AWE exhibition space and its curated selection of paintings into a modern take on the traditional art exhibit.
As visitors move through the gallery space, they are immersed in dynamic, artificial intelligence-assisted visuals that merge the physical and the digital worlds, connect all paintings, and contribute to the creation of a new work of art.
