Framing Competition Win!

Tue, 26 May 2009

The team at Applecross Framing & Fine Art were delighted to walk away with the trophy for the Most Imaginative Composition in a framing competition held by suppliers Antons.  The thirty entrants in the competition were invited to frame a print of Geoffrey Smart's "Cahill Expressway" in the most interesting way.  A wide range of innovative designs and styles, plus excellent workmanship was displayed.  Our entry, which is on show in the gallery, comprises a handmade collage of Sydney UBD maps forming the matboard on which the silver-framed image was suspended using steel wire and chrome eyelets.  Mirror panels formed the side build-up reflecting the map collage which appeared to extend to infinity.  The exterior frame, also silver, matched the interior one.
