Mount making is often described as the invisible art of museum work. Yet the way an object is supported and displayed shapes how it is seen, understood, and preserved. Drawing on d ecades of experience at the Asian Civilisations Museum and the Peranakan Museum, this handbook brings together practical knowledge developed through sustained experimentation and problem-solving. It approaches mount making as both a technical discipline and a form of interpretation, offering a shared resource for mount makers in Southeast Asia and beyond. Show more
