Why buy art? expand_more expand_less

'The purpose of art is washing the dust off our daily lives' – Pablo Picasso

In today’s world of frenetic change and technology, art represents what is most important in life. It represents passion, emotion, relationships, memories… and so much more. Art is inspiration and madness. Art is genius. But most of all, art is about you. It is about representing a part of you and your worldview in your home.

At Mojarto, we know that art has the power to transform a space. A beautiful piece of art in your home can work in so many ways – a daily reminder of something it represents, a conversation starter, a mood changer. Nothing will make a statement about your taste and discernment better than a beautiful piece of art in your home.

Need help installing your art? expand_more expand_less

At Mojarto, we believe that there’s only one rule to installing art – make it shine.

1.

Choose settings, frames, mounts and walls to make sure that the artwork gets the attention it deserves. Your beautiful artwork shouldn’t be overpowered by anything. Simple, clean backgrounds and surroundings work the best to make your artwork the focal point of an area.

2.

Try to hang paintings so that the focal point of the painting is at eye level. This means that if your painting has one big element – that needs to be at eye level. Ensure that you have some ‘viewing distance’ for a painting. You need to be able to stand a few feet away (2-5 feet) and appreciate the painting in its entirety.

3.

If you’ve got glass on a painting, make sure no light reflects off it, obscuring the view. You can even consider having it frames with non reflective glass.

4.

For canvas paintings, a great way to illuminate the depth and beauty of the painting is to install some spot lighting on it.

5.

Ensure that canvas works are stretched and framed without glass, and paper artworks are framed with mount and glass.

Remember, however you install art, make sure that it’s protected from direct sunlight and moisture, both of which can really damage a beautiful piece of art.

Here are some wonderful examples of how to frame, mount and install art to make it shine.
