Case Study: high value electronic artwork removal, packing and transport within london

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overview

Artist and creative technologist Andrew Zolty required the safe relocation of his digitally controlled kinetic artworks from the Chancery Rosewood in London to his studio elsewhere in the city. With delicate moving components, integrated electronics, and a need for precise deinstallation, the project demanded a logistics partner capable of delivering specialist art handling with technical understanding. Prime Lane was appointed to manage the full process — from uninstalling the works to crating, transporting, and reinstalling them — ensuring complete protection and accountability throughout.

Objectives

  • Safely uninstall digitally controlled kinetic artworks from a hotel environment
  • Protect mechanical and electronic components during packing and crating
  • Transport the artworks securely across London
  • Deliver, un-crate, and position the pieces within the studio
  • Maintain full transparency and careful handling at every stage

 

 

 

Our Approach

Specialist Handling of Technology‑Driven Artworks

The kinetic pieces required careful isolation of power, controlled disconnection of digital systems, and stabilisation of moving elements before any physical handling. Our trained art‑handling team used museum‑grade materials and custom internal supports to protect both the sculptural and electronic components.

Professional Crating and Secure Transport

Each artwork was wrapped, cushioned, and placed into a custom crate designed to minimise vibration and movement. The crates were transported in a secure, air‑ride vehicle to ensure a smooth journey through London's urban environment.

On‑Site Coordination and Clear Communication

A dedicated Prime Lane representative oversaw the entire process, providing updates at each stage — from deinstallation to delivery. This ensured full transparency and allowed the client to plan studio preparations with confidence.

Careful Delivery and Studio Placement

Upon arrival, our team uncrated the artworks, carried out condition checks, and positioned each piece according to the client's layout requirements. All packing materials were removed, leaving the studio ready for reconnection and testing.

 

Outcome

The relocation was completed safely, efficiently, and without any handling issues. All artworks arrived in perfect condition, with their digital and kinetic systems fully protected throughout the move. The project was delivered on schedule and to the client's exact expectations.
