This allows the public to navigate through the collections on display easily and doesn't cause you to get lost. I did find it hard to see what artist made the pieces that I found eye-catching. I also found it hard to get close to the pieces to get a better understanding of what they were about and what media was used to make them. Angles were another problem I faced because when I got close to an piece in particular I would often not be able to get a clear, face on view. This is something that is important to me because I want t try and get an understanding on how large the image is in relation to the pieces around it. I found the overall experience easy to work with and the works on display were evenly spaced out, but I found examining the pieces difficult.

However just like the previous exhibition it was hard to examine the pieces that I wanted. I found it hard to get close to the images and I couldn't quite see who the artists were. I also found it hard to get a grasp over the size of each piece.

You could also choose what genre to explore which were:
