Marca Gallery is based in Bangalore, though we don't always talk much about the specific street unless someone is actually coming over. It is basically a big open room where we keep various pieces of art and objects on display. Running a gallery involves a lot more cleaning than you might think. We are constantly dusting the frames and making sure the floor doesn't have footprints everywhere. The lighting has to be checked almost every day because a bulb always seems to be flickering. We spend time moving things around to see where they look best. It is a very quiet environment most of the time. Sometimes hours go by and it is just us and the art. When people do come in, they usually walk around slowly without saying much. We have a small desk near the entrance where we sit and handle the emails or read. Bangalore has a lot of these little spots tucked away, and we are just one of them. It is not about being flashy; it is just about having a space where things can be seen properly. We have some crates in the back for shipping things out, and that part of the job is much more messy with all the bubble wrap and tape. But the front of the house stays calm. It is a strange mix of being very busy with packing and very still in the display area.
