Charlotte Salomon

Charlotte Salomon painted her life's story between 1940 and 1942. A year later, at the age of 26, she was killed in Auschwitz.

I developed an interactive display of high resolution, zoomable renderings to accompany the exhibition of her work at the Joods Cultureel Kwartier in Amsterdam. The full work of Life? Or Theatre? includes over 800 gouaches. The accompanying text has been translated into multiple languages and narrated by voice actors.

The original order and presentation of work was respected, and navigation is designed to move from page to page. Filters based on character and theme were discretely added.

The app includes high resolution, zoomable images to inspect the original in incredible detail.
