Framing, especially in a curatorial sense, can hold the context and translation of many different meanings and ideas. When it comes to the literal framing of your artworks, Lightfarm is here to support your ideas and find the most meaningful ways of presenting them.
Choosing frames can depend on the artwork it will carry as well as the context of its display. For more contemporary or digital works, a front mounted floating frame, with a narrow float, may be ideal. For more artefact or documentation- type work, a back mounted floating box-frame, with a wide float may enhance the visuality of the work. We have a wide selection of frames and mounts in-house for you to choose from. Come in and have a look.
Other considerations around framing include the size of your margins and whether they will be displayed within the frame.
