Appesa study

You send the update. We keep the record coherent.

The relationship

You send Appesa the update. We decide where it belongs, publish it properly, and keep the wider record coherent.

The work around the work

A complete record, not a collection of loose pages.

Stewardship starts before the first screen is designed. We understand the material, create the right structure, build the site, and remain responsible for keeping it useful.

01

Shape the record

We begin with the material: works, series, exhibitions, biography, CV, texts, press, and publications. We decide what belongs, how it relates, and what someone needs to find first.

  • Content audit
  • Editorial structure
  • Archive planning
02

Design the home

Every Appesa website is designed around the character and requirements of the practice. The interface stays quiet, the images carry weight, and the structure remains clear on every screen.

  • Art direction
  • Interface design
  • Custom development
03

Bring the archive together

Existing material is edited, organised, and migrated into a durable structure. Works can connect to exhibitions, texts, and installation views, creating context instead of a collection of disconnected pages.

  • Content migration
  • Linked records
  • Image preparation
04

Keep everything current

Send us the new dates, images, or article. We update the relevant pages, preserve the record, and make sure “upcoming” never remains online after an exhibition has closed.

  • Exhibition updates
  • New work and press
  • CV maintenance
05

Look after the infrastructure

Hosting, performance, security, backups, and technical maintenance remain with Appesa. The artist does not need to manage a platform or learn another system.

  • Managed hosting
  • Monitoring and backups
  • Technical support

The build begins it. Care keeps it useful.

Appesa is structured as a continuing relationship. The website launches once; the record keeps changing.

01 / The initial build

Create the permanent home

We audit the material, edit the structure, design and develop the website, and migrate the existing record. The result is ready for the practice as it exists now and for what comes next.

02 / Ongoing stewardship

Keep the record alive

New works, exhibitions, acquisitions, reviews, and publications are added with care. Appesa also looks after hosting, security, performance, and the technical details behind the site.
