"The darkest hour is just before dawn." - Author unknown

Kiama, NSW

This abstract photograph of the morning dawn captures a "bright red line" on the horizon, symbolising the sun's emergence over the ocean from a cliff view at Cathedral Rocks.

Cathedral Rocks is a natural formation characterised by towering sea stacks and dramatic coastal cliffs, situated along the coastline of Kiama, approximately 120 kilometres south of Sydney.

Angle of the light & glare

Ideally, lighting should be angled at 30 degrees to reduce glare. By changing the angle of the light, you can change the angle of reflection and solve the problem with glare. 

 If the angle of the light source can’t be changed and the artwork can’t be moved, a modest amount of lean can be helpful in providing the best viewing experience. 

Positioning artworks directly opposite windows allowing in natural sunlight should be avoided from a conservation perspective, no matter what glazing is on it. If the artwork is hung opposite a window, a sheer shade or screen on the window can make a difference in the amount of visible reflection.

Museum vs. home light difference

Museum light

In a museum gallery, light levels will be 50 lux to 100 lux. At a 90-degree viewing angle, less than 1.5% of light will be reflected with Optium, meaning .5 lux - 1 lux will be reflected. (This is the scenario where the glazing is completely invisible.) At an off angle, up to 4 lux might be reflected. 

An indoor space with windows will have a light level between 1000 and 5000 lux. With Optium, the reflection level will measure between 10 lux and 50 lux when standing directly in front of the picture. At an off-angle, the amount of reflected light could be between 40 lux and 200 lux. 

Home light

In general, lighting levels in a home are between 150-1000 lux. In this scenario, the reflection level of Optium will measure between 1.5 lux – 10 lux, and at an off angle, between 6 lux and 40 lux could be reflected. The amount of reflection, however, is significantly lower than the reflection of regular uncoated glass or acrylic.
