Materials (cont'd):
If applicable, describe existing materials/methods of presentation (e.g.frame, base,
mounting/hanging hardware, etc).:
Life Expectancy:
Even under the best of environmental conditions and maintenance, all things eventually
deteriorate beyond feasible repair. This is a result of inherent vices in the materials, the
way they interact with other materials and the surrounding environment including public
interaction. While we commit to doing our best to extend the lifespan of an artwork, we
by no means expect it to last forever. As difficult as it may be to place an expiration date
on one's creation, it is important to level-set realistic expectations. Considering the
materials and likely environment, what is the conservative estimated lifespan of your
artwork? If you don't know, describe what deteriorations you anticipate.:
The paint may fade over time.
