Exhibition identity for an open studio WIP exhibition of paintings by Leon Leong and photography by Lisa Foo. This series of work capture the way of life in Razak Mansion before its demolition in 2017 and how local lives continue after that.
The main intention was to let visitors to not only see and experience Razak Mansion from the outside, but also the inside. The typography highlights the play of inside out and Leon’s signature use of Pegboard canvas, bringing depth to the live portrait of residents in their home and exterior photos of Razak Mansion.
