Artsume Live: Miami

Artsume Live is a live collaborative art event where a curated group of Miami artists each claim a block on one shared large-format canvas — painting their section live, in front of a real audience, over the course of an afternoon.

The result is a single unified mosaic. Individual voices. One collective work. Built in real time at The Wall Art Gallery at Wynwood.

The finished piece is something no single artist could have made alone.

Inspired by r/place — the internet experiment where thousands of users each claimed a pixel on one shared canvas — we bring the same idea into physical space. The canvas is divided into equal blocks. Each block belongs to one artist.

A draw determines the order. Artist one begins freely. Every artist that follows responds to what came before. The grid lines are lightly pencilled — artists are encouraged to bleed across borders, respond to their neighbours, and let the work become something unexpected.

The finished canvas remains on display at The Wall Art Gallery at Wynwood for 3–4 weeks after the event — an ongoing exhibition and a continued press moment for the artists and the gallery.

At the end of the display period, the mural is either donated to a Miami arts institution or auctioned live, with all proceeds going to charity.
