Unblocked.
The ability to create is an amazing skill...a skill that is constantly challenged by a wall called Art block (A.k.a Motivation tap out). Art block causes many creatives to suffer. "Unblocked." is here to help you against your battle with art block so that your creativity can flow.
Platform used: Figma, Miro, Adobe Illustrator
The Problem
Many artists, including myself, have experienced the pain of being unable to create, no matter how hard you try -_-, aka art block. It is a significant problem that not only halts your creative process but also creates room for self-doubt and a lack of motivation. In order to look out for my fellow artists, I wanted to find a solution to Artblock by creating a product that would make a solution. UnBlocked.
The Solution
UnBlocked. is an app that will combat Art Block by increasing motivation in users through challenges, community support, and sparking inspiration. Through my research, I found that one of the best ways to motivate oneself in a motivation stasis is to challenge yourself or to work with friends.
Challenge to create
unBlocked will give your creativity a little push with daily challenges and a plethora of creative projects to choose from. As well as a space to present your art to others.
Focus on communtiy
UnBlocked wants to emphasize community. Difficult times in life can’t be done alone. Connect with local artists to get more insight into the creative world. Join live classes or artist talks.
