Edvard Munch - Connect the Lines

Connect in playful new ways with Munch's drawings – a strange and surprising world to explore. Create your own digital drawings and discover how AI finds similar works from the collection.

Art can connect places and people across time. This interactive exhibition invites you to explore connections with Edvard Munch's roughly 7,000 drawings from the MUNCH museum archive. These works are extremely sensitive and fragile, which is why they must rest most of the time, hidden from public view.

Now, we invite you to use your creativity to explore Munch's drawings in our digital archive. As you draw on a tablet, the system uses artificial intelligence (AI) to find a Munch drawing that resembles yours – helping you connect with thousands of works that have so far remained largely protected in the museum's archives.
