Issue with Buttons and ActionPerformed

[Deathmonger]

Hi, I'm sure this is a simple fix, but I don't know what to use to fix it. I am playing around with a program that allows the user to interact with an object. The program I'm starting allows the user to choose a direction, and move a square 5 pixels. However, I can't seem to get it to work. When you click on the "Up" button, the square is supposed to move 5 pixels up, and when you click on "Left," the square moves 5 pixels left, and so on...

Here is the code I created so far, and when I click on one of these buttons, the square doesn't do anything. I'm sure it's a simple fix, I just don't know what it is.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Code:

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.util.*;

public class InteractionX {
	
	static JFrame frame;
	static Container contain;
	static JButton up;
	static JButton down;
	static JButton left;
	static JButton right;
	static Panel controls;
	static Panel canvasArea;
	
	static int x = 75;
	static int y = 75;
	
	static class InteractXCanvas extends Canvas {
		
		public void paint(Graphics g) {
			g.fillRect(x,y,10,10);
		}
		
	}
	
	static class InteractXMovement implements ActionListener {
		InteractXCanvas IXC = new InteractXCanvas();
		
		public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
			String whichButton;
			whichButton = ae.getActionCommand();
			int x2 = 0;
			int y2 = 0;
			
			if(whichButton.equals("Up")) {
				y = y + 5;
				
			}
			if(whichButton.equals("Down")) {
				y = y-5;
				
			}
			if(whichButton.equals("Left")) {
				x = x-5;
				
			}
			if(whichButton.equals("Right")) {
				x = x+5;
				
			}
			
			IXC.repaint();
			
		}
	}
	
	
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		InteractXCanvas IXC = new InteractXCanvas();
		InteractXMovement IXM = new InteractXMovement();
		
		frame = new JFrame("Interaction World");
		contain = new Container();
		up = new JButton("Up");
		down = new JButton("Down");
		left = new JButton("Left");
		right = new JButton("Right");
		controls = new Panel();
		canvasArea = new Panel();
		
		up.addActionListener(IXM);
		down.addActionListener(IXM);
		left.addActionListener(IXM);
		right.addActionListener(IXM);
		
		frame.setSize(500,500);
		IXC.setSize(100,100);
		contain = frame.getContentPane();
		frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
		contain.setLayout(new GridLayout(2,3));
		
		controls.add(up);
		controls.add(down);
		controls.add(left);
		controls.add(right);
		canvasArea.add(IXC);
		
		frame.setVisible(true);
		
		
	}
	
	
}
