Photo curator

Posted by Lee in Photos

Tracey and I went to the Finders Keepers markets here in Brisbane a couple of weeks ago, they’re markets that encourage up and coming designers and artists and it was their first time here.

One of the designer stalls reminded me of a post that Arjan from Dutchnid did ages ago where he was putting up his photos on the wall.  I thought what Arjan had done looked quite neat but when I saw the photo curator stall I instantly thought of him and his photos.  Rather than just emailing him I thought I might give an Aussie company a plug and spread the word because I know some of you are quite keen photographers.

So the photo curator way of mounting your photos up on the wall seems to be insanely simple, there are these coloured mounts that stick on the wall with low impact sticky stuff (thus not ripping your hard earned paint of the walls) and you just pop the photo in.  OK now that I write that it seems stupidly simple, but that is actually it.

It’s completely up to you how you arrange them and because it is so simple you can change your photos and move them around as your mood takes you.

Personally I’m terrible with printing photos up, I really should make more of an effort, but if I did I’d definitely use this system of displaying them, I also read on the blog that they are working on A4 sized ones which I might be interested in for some of my sketches.

So go check out their website at http://www.curator.com.au/, one thing I wasn’t sure of though and you would have to ask whether or not they ship overseas.

    You should definitely put your artwork up!
    Since it's easy to swap them around, you change it when the mood strikes.

    Thanks! I'll bookmark this one!
    It's darn hard to drill random holes in these walls overhere (really really hard concrete).

    The size is the only problem at this stage – when they bring out A4 sized ones I might grab a pack.

    Well there you go, no more random holes in the concrete :)

    If they don't deliver overseas let me know and you can always get them sent to me.
