A sight leak is when failure to provide a limiting agent to the view, with human sight passing through rather than falling on your display. Providing an appropriate foreground and background keeps the eye within the display depth and boundaries. But you can use backgrounds like this light and inexpensive Nylon Mesh to both limit the view, yet hint at more displays and treasures beyond. In addition to mesh, I have seen perforated screens, expanded metal, and other materials used. CLICK through the gallery here for various views. Then explore the selection of sight leaks and sight leak mitigation techniques below.
