Lead Image

Documenting the work and exchanges between collaborating artists in South Korea and Singapore, this pamphlet uses the metaphor of camera obscura to convey the swapping of location. While matching Pantones to paper stock was one hurdle of the project, smooth transitions across the gutter is another subtle production triumph.

Project Description

Promotional poster and exhibition brochure for "€˜The Substation Seoul Art Space Mullae Project Part One 2013/14"€™. The exhibition, jointly organised by The Substation and Seoul Art Space Mullae, featured the outcomes of an artistic exchange between a pair of Singaporean and South Korean artists during a residency programme in Singapore. The group would continue a second residency in South Korea and would later exhibit the outcomes in Seoul.

Inspired by the exchange of letters and photographs of the view from the studio windows between the artists prior to their residency in Singapore, the idea of the camera obscura is used as a metaphor for the concept for the exhibition identity. Each artist's "window"€ would be exchanged, translated and transformed during the residency while working together in the process of creating their art.

Production Lesson(s)

We've learnt how challenging it was to match coloured paper stocks with printing with Pantone colours, especially in this project where the chosen book block paper comes in limited grammage that was not suitable for the brochure cover.”
