Yesterday I was in the
Mall Galleries as the finishing touches were put to the hang of the 2018 Annual Exhibition of the Society of Women Artists.
I'll be writing the review of this excellent exhibition tomorrow.
In the meantime here's an insight to some of the tools that the Tech team at the Mall Galleries use to hang an exhibition of 450 artworks in two days.

| Basic tools - tapes, level, screws and cordless drill |
First the artwork has to be laid out on the floor in terms of how it needs to be hung on the wall
Then the tech team and their super duper kit mobile home move in
 |
The Tech Team Toolkit - on wheels!
A place for everything - and some of it in place and some of it in use |
On the reverse there are tapes and wedges for every possible use

| Wedges and tapes |
Finally the big steps come out so as to adjust the lighting so it enhances the framed artwork on the wall

| Very very big steps for adjusting lights |
The Tech Team form part of the exhibition support for those
hiring the galleries for their exhibition
