Interactive animated movie that can be moved by touching Van Gogh's masterpiece "Star Moon Night"

An interactive animation was created that made it possible to touch the work of Van Gogh, a painter known as "Himawari" and other works, by touching it with hands. The glittering starlit sky is the beauty that seems to have been the world seemed like this in the eyes of Van Gogh.

Before this became an interactive animation "Star moonliday". Work of 1889, Van Gogh is one of the masterpieces painted during medical treatment at a mental hospital.


A cloud that swirls in the starry sky is drawn. This starts slow animation.


I do not understand the difference when viewed with still images, but the moon and the stars also move to sparkle.


The cypress on the left side of the picture was what Van Gogh actually saw from the hospital room.


The movie enters this interactive part from here.


If you trace the clouds around with your fingers ... ...


The flow of the cloud will change to a shape along it.


I tried paying by hand this time. Then, the vortex of the cloud collapses, and it becomes like to lie down sideways.


I trace a cedar with my fingers and extend the branches for a long time.


The moon is connected with the star.


This interactive animation was created by Petros Vrellis. A quiet and peaceful BGM is also due to Vrellis. Perhaps Van Gogh's eyes clouds swirl like this, the work feels like the moon was twinklingly glittering. Even when seeing other works in the museum, if you complement the picture information in the brain like this, the way you look may change.
