My own exhibit
For my own display for the exhibition I decided on taking a similar approach to what I saw and was very much inspired by at the Birmingham Art Museum.
I felt it was vastly important that my display would reflect the art that would be being exhibited.
I intend my display to be very simple, yet will cater a modern, minimalist art gallery-esque appearance, with the negative wall space and visuals. Certainly with this style of display it will be the artwork that will be the main focal point.
I took liberty of drafting up a few rough sketches of how i'd like to display my work at the exhibition.
I would have a wall with a variety of my photography and design work being displayed, bearing similarities to how the work was displayed at the Birmingham Art Museum which you can see from my primary research, next to the work on the wall i'd also like to be able to draw and paint information, logos etc relating to the work. I feel it would compliment and deliver a nice contrast, you'd have the wall mounted work and then some nice hand rendered type relating to the piece.
In front of the wall would be a desk with a Mac that would showcase my website to visitors and on the desk would be my piece of promotional material, which i'm certain will be a business card.
Either side of the wall if I see fit I may also display more work on plinths.
A very simple, traditional approach seen as many galleries up and down the country, such as the V&A but executed in the correct fashion can deliver a very stylish, modern vibe, again characteristics that relate to the work that will be on display.
