Today Cheryl Jones agreed to take me around the archives at Walsall Art Gallery. My original idea was to use this space to hold my virtual exhibition or use it as inspiration for my own designed area.
The tour consisted of walking down a dark stair well that ended with a white door opening through to the large archive space.
I felt that I was entering a space not usually visited which fits perfectly with my concept.
The area consisted of one large room filled with the gallery's collection. Massive crates containing sculptures and a pull out grid wall system where paintings and drawings are hung upon for storage.
A small room containing a extensive filling system on pull out shelves.
A large room with high metal shelves for storage of tools and equipment.
A large corridor leading to the end of the archive space.
Opposite the corridor was a large metal stainless steel lift for transporting pieces of work to the exhibition space.
