The main idea behind the exhibition alignment was to have the images in some logical fashion - the first idea was to group images of places that are near each other geographically (as the images below which are next to each other in the city centre).
Since 90% of the panes were vertical, I grouped the horizontal ones in such a way that each horizontal one was flanked by two vertical ones (one of which was always the one that contains the information of the images in the "double" pane).
The cafe owner forbade me to put nails on the walls to hang things (the place has just been renovated so I understand her drive on protecting her walls an furniture) so I needed to go creative.
All panes are hanging on cord which is tied to the nearest shelf (that required all my inventiveness and engineering skills but in the end it worked quite well). The panes hang midair and thank God the cord is not visible. The "double panes" are placed in such a way that they draw the viewer's attention from the door - the pic below shows what is positioned directly opposite the door. The idea was to capture the viewer's attention immediately and have them think "wow, this is interesting, let's try and see what is going on" and to have them actually read what I have written in the website.
