Hospital Visit







I am just back from the Hospital in Halifax having had a coffee in the cafe and wandered around the corridors. My first impression as I went in the main entrance is the possibilities of the space. It is a wide open space with the potential to house a display of art. I stopped at the cafe to see what people would be looking at and what the possibilities of branding the exhibition would be. The main branding potential was the wall opposite the cafe which was a large blank canvas. My first two ideas would be perfect for this space. As I was sat at my table I wondered if people having a drink would be compelled to walk over and interact in the desired way. I think some sort of information on each table in the cafe to introduce people to the idea and how to use the wall.

Whilst walking down the corridors I came across artwork by students from a local school in cabinets. Also on the walls were signs at regular intervals for directions, some were not at the main junctions but half way down a corridor. This needs to be taken into account if the exhibition will be in various corridors around the hospital.
