About ActiveArt

ActiveArt is a storytelling art program and app that brings paintings into healthcare settings such as hospital corridors, clinics and waiting rooms. Its stated aim is to turn art into moments of joy and connection for patients, families and staff.

The experience works in three steps. A painting hangs on the wall, a visitor opens the ActiveArt app and points a phone at it, and augmented reality recognizes the artwork. A short artist-led video then plays, which can be saved and shared.

The project grew from artist Jonathan's drawings in hospital waiting rooms during his father's cancer treatment. Today 30 to 40 of his paintings hang at Massachusetts General Hospital, including a Bruins mural in paediatric oncology. The site offers sections for healthcare institutions, corporates and individuals, and describes the goal as a measurable lift in patient experience for host institutions. ActiveArt is run by Active Art LLC, based in Boston.
