Art Contact was engaged to source and supply artworks for the upstairs waiting area at the Courtyard Dental Practice. Artworks by Charlotte Cornish were selected to go with other pictures by the same artist in the downstairs waiting area.

The artist prints were framed in a flat limed ash moulding with conservation off-white mount. The framed pictures were then installed on security fixings to ensure that they remained level even if they were knocked.

As part of an ongoing project Art Contact was asked to supply artworks for the new Doctor’s Lounge at the Wellington South Hospital.

Julia Brooker was commissioned to produce a number of her abstract paintings on aluminium panels. She has used a colour palate to complement the interior of the Lounge. The paintings were then framed in ‘Wenge’ coloured tray frames.

During the installation a number of doctors came to have a look at the new Doctors Lounge. They were all impressed by the lounge and particularly the artworks.

The creation of Doctor’s Lounges by the HCA Group of Hospitals has been extremely well received by the staff.

Art Contact began the new year, in continued collaboration with Portland Hospital, as they continue with developments within the hospital. Art Contact were selected to commission a series of bespoke artworks for the Day Case Unit, more specifically for the bedrooms allocated to young people. With that in mind, Art Contact looked a developing the distinctive style established within the hospital and adapting it to this new location.

During the collaboration Portland Hospital outlined an interest in music, and the positive healing qualities it can have, especially in young people. Art Contact developed this idea and commissioned a digital artist to produce a series of images which depicted children playing and interacting with instruments or dancing to music. In line with the exciting art collection within the hospital, the artworks were printed onto high quality, easy to maintain acrylic panels and the artist contextualized the artworks, to include London landmarks.

Art Contact was keen to continue the theme of ‘children and families at play’ from previous areas of the hospital and so collaborated with a digital artist to produce vibrant, eye-catching acrylic panels which depicted children playing in a park environment. With London landmarks contextualizing the images, Art Contact was keen to portray a positivity in subject matter whilst also celebrating the location of the hospital, within iconic buildings across our capital.

The Where’s Wally wallpaper, which had been so popular in a previous ward, has also been adapted to work on panels, again to encourage continuity between wards. Art Contact was keen to create a familiar environment for returning patients and visitors and the Where’s Wally style images have become a focal point of the hospital interior.

Through all stages of development, Art Contact worked closely with the Portland Hospital clinical team in choosing the perfect images for all to enjoy.

Art Contact was requested to source and supply artwork for the patient rooms of the Gynaecology Ward of the Portland Hospital. Floral images were chosen to brighten up the rooms.

The artwork was placed within the patients rooms and along the corridors. This is part of an of an ongoing art program with HCA.

Art Contact continues to supply artwork for the major refurbishment of the Portland Hospitals buildings. Commissions include digital photography artwork printed onto PVC or acrylic panels with mirror polished stainless steel fixings.

This was supplied for the Doctors Lounge, Boardroom and Consulting Rooms and Waiting Areas, taking imagery and scenes from the surrounding architecture and parkland.

The brief was to enhance and brighten the space, creating a holistic feel by bringing the outside in through the use of flora and fauna.

The artwork was chosen to complement the tranquillity of the space and the minimalist approach to the interior design.

London Bridge Hospital commissioned an artwork which represented the building and its surroundings along the South Bank for the newly renovated Reception Area.

The artwork, a digital montage of photographs, printed onto flame polished acrylic panels and fixed with stainless steel bolts, is a testament to the wonderful architectural features from Waterloo to London Bridge including the river facade of hospital building itself.

The Portland Hospital wanted to create a welcoming and bright atmosphere in the primary areas of the hospital using artworks that were created through photo-montage technique. The artworks, designed by one of our artists, were digitised montages of photographs taken by the artist of landmarks around Great Portland Street and Regents Park which were then mounted onto glass or perspex panels.

The hospital wanted to reflect their service as specialists in Obstrecics, Women’s health and Paediactrics by employing the theme of mother and child through the artworks used throughout the hospital. In the children’s areas a bright and fun colour palette was chosen to complement the interior design while the images were taken from children playing in Regents Park.

Princess Grace Hospital part of HCA Healthcare Group. Our association with HCA goes back nearly two decades during which time we have provided a comprehensive art programme to reflect the clients international reputation as a healthcare provider.

In this case we were asked to supply artwork to brighten up the rooms while being aware of the stringent requirements of the healthcare environment.

Over the years, in conjunction with HCA we have developed a range of display products ideally suited to the healthcare environment.

The Crystal Centre is a new-build residential and outreach facility for the ‘elderly with dementia’ developed at Broomfield Hospital (Chelmsford) by the North Essex Mental Health Partnership Trust.

In the two Reception Areas, the ‘blue waters’ of the seascape vistas reference the ‘clear thinking’ ethos of the Centre.

Through the various activities and therapies available at the Centre, the patients will be working towards the same ‘clearer thinking’. However, within the Day Unit, the images were carefully chosen to stimulate patients’ memories and assist them in recalling experiences from normal family life.
