I would have a motorized elevating platform ( cherry picker) ready. I would go to the site and have all my suspension points ready the day before. maybe even practice lifting and tying the one sculpture. This would help determine the necessity of protection from the plywood. rather than try and hang curtains of the wrong color I would give thought to standoff to hold the scuplture away from the wall. maybe glue foam pads to the sculpture. I am confused about the time 12pm is that 1 second after 12 noon for a 4 hour duration or 1 second before 12 midnight for a 16 hour requirement. Balloon sizing would depend on that answer. Only my thoughts. good luck and let us know how it works out. Len
