EP 8: "Hang it Straight"

Hanging art isn’t as simple as hammer, nail, done. In this episode of On the Move: The Art of Interior Installations, Kelly and Caralee explore the hidden complexities behind professional art installation—where precision meets creativity, and every inch matters.

From aligning priceless paintings to engineering support for oversized sculptures, this episode dives into the science of weight, balance, and placement that transforms walls into galleries. Along the way, Kelly shares stories from the field—like the time a velvet sofa stole the spotlight—and Caralee breaks down why art handling requires more than muscle: it takes training, patience, and an eye for detail.

 In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why “eyeballing it” is never an option in professional art installation.
• The tools and techniques pros use to protect artwork and walls.
• The surprising role communication plays between designers, clients, and installers.

Whether you’re a designer looking to wow a client, or a homeowner wondering why that frame keeps tilting, Hang It reveals the secrets behind flawless art placement.
