Room one
Hélène Marchal
Letterforms cut, printed and hung at the size they were drawn.
Room two
Nadia Brühl
Cloth and thread, kept at the stage before anything is finished.
Room three
Idris Kane
Surfaces enlarged until the material stops being background.
Exhibition split into artist rooms, each with a sticky statement column beside its works, opening a viewer that shows the chosen piece large with the next one waiting as a thumbnail you can step straight into.
One artist to a room: a sticky room card beside three works, repeated down the page on rules. The viewer keeps the room going, showing the current work with the one you are about to see waiting beside it.

Works listed with the sizes they are printed at, opening a viewer that hangs the piece in a photographed room and scales it as you switch size pills, so the dimensions stop being an abstraction.
gallery8
Photographs presented as printed spreads on a soft panel: two plates share a page with a centre rule, round controls turn to the next spread, and a bar index below tracks how far through the book you are.
gallery12
Works of different sizes hung on one centre line inside a matted wall panel, each with its own label, opening a viewer that shows the piece in a mount beside a museum wall label of medium, dimensions and year.
gallery14
Long-scroll exhibition where every work sits in its own matted panel with a full label, beside a sticky rail whose numbered index follows the work in the middle of the screen and scrolls to any other on click.
