Moonah Arts Centre Exhibition Space

Cultural/heritage

Light is the medium that moulds spaces and reveals the art and performance at the Moonah Arts Centre. The design uses restrained but multiple natural light sources to highlight and delight. Materials reflect, absorb or fragment the light. The “light box”, clad in translucent polycarbonate panels, is a visual arts exhibition space. The main exhibition space opens to a smaller adjacent exhibition alcove, which can operate as a discrete and separate space if desired. A unique hanging system operates on a track grid, allowing for easy installation and flexible configuration of display panels, and solving an intractable problem.
