Painter and visual artist Julie Groll wanted to promote her presence at the Affordable Art Fair in Brussels. Already active on social media, she aimed to take things a step further — turning digital engagement into real-world visits to her booth.
Her challenge? To bridge the gap between her online universe and the physical experience of her art, while preserving the aesthetics and emotion of her creations in the urban space.
Repurpose social media content into public, physical visibility
Increase local exposure among Brussels-based art lovers
Drive foot traffic to her stand during the fair
And of course… share the visuals of her art in the city back on her own social media!
With the support of the glooh platform and in collaboration with Atelier Milky (who handled both the photo shoot and video editing), Julie launched a high-impact #SocialDOOH campaign:
From Instagram Feed to the Streets
Julie selected one of her existing Instagram stories and adapted it for DOOH formats — transforming her creative world into an open-air gallery.
Strategic Screen Placement
The campaign was displayed on 20 digital screens, placed in:
Creative neighborhoods
Busy shopping streets
A shopping mall near the Affordable Art Fair
Circular Amplification
Julie photographed her campaign in the streets and reshared the visuals on her social platforms — closing the loop between digital and physical presence.
“Amazing experience with the Glooh Media team — very professional and attentive to my needs.
Also, the platform is incredibly intuitive. I absolutely recommend it!”
— Julie Groll, visual artist
With over 40,000 impressions and 10,000 plays, Julie showed that an independent artist can successfully use DOOH to transform a digital audience into real-world visibility.
#SocialDOOH is changing the game: content no longer stays trapped on smartphones — it comes to life in the streets, grabs attention, creates reactions, and circles back to social media with even more impact.
When content is meaningful, aesthetic, and locally relevant, it truly engages. For artists like Julie, it’s a new, vibrant stage — where art meets its audience, offline and in the heart of the city.
