Linea Art Platform

Linea - Social Marketplace for Visual Art

Discover. Connect. Collect.

/ Problem

What? It’s a struggle to find new artists, authentically connect with them and then directly purchase their work.

Why? The online art market is inefficient and disjointed, with social networks previously addressing discoverability and legacy marketplaces being outdated, opaque and missing authentic connection.

Why Now? The previously lagging $70 billion art market is rapidly digitising.
