SYDNEY MODERN PROJECT - EXHIBITION LIGHTING TRIAL

Completed 2022

Selection of the exhibition lighting for the Sydney Modern Project went through various stages. This included developing a lighting performance strategy that detailed the base-level technical requirements for the lighting. Samples of wall washers and framers from various gallery lighting suppliers were then tested / mocked up in a modern exhibition at the Art Gallery of NSW. Spectrometer data was recorded for evaluation and to compare this with supplied data / cut sheets. Empathy testing was also carried out to find out how the lighting is viewed / perceived and if these feelings / emotions are shared on the quality of light on the artwork.
