I quite like your work Simon. I grabbed one piece awhile back and keep checking your site for anything else I may need.. I have been trying to figure out how to display it. I grabbed a cheap shadowbox frame the other day and mounted it with hinge tape inside. Seems to be holding up so far. I would be interested in how others are using them. Excuse the horrible picture.  |

I think that looks really good in the shadowbox timl. There's a couple of pics of some framed pieces on my Instagram page: instagram.com/simonmathewson1/They're pretty similar to the way you've got yours framed. |

Hinge tape? Super strength Stick on Velcro may help you out there. Maybe chuck a staple or two through it for safety. |

Hi Dave,
Mark at Atom Gallery mounted them. I should have taken a photo but I'll try to explain. He screwed some lengths of wood (approx 20cm x 2cm square) horizontally into some very thin pieces of wood (approx 20cm x 10cm x 3mm) and then screwed the flatter pieces of wood into the back of the paintings using very very short screws. The paintings then hung from the 20cm x 2cm square piece onto screws in the wall. I hope that makes sense. I'll try and get a photo for you if it doesn't!

Give Mark a call at Atom, he's very helpful, usually puts pieces up on his site a week or so after the show has opened if they haven't sold.
