National Gallery Singapore — Awakenings Exhibition Catalogue

Agency: WORK Pte Ltd / Client: National Gallery Singapore

“The Awakenings exhibition investigates how experimental artists acted as catalysts for change during some of Asia’s most turbulent decades.

It spotlights artistic responses to major global events such as the Cold War, and explores how artists challenged political, social and artistic conventions.”

I worked closely with the Creative Director of WORK to art direct this project according to its brief. The concept of Awakenings is, similar to its content, to go against stereotypical book making norms. Encapsulating the spirit of Rebellion. This book is torn in half and then hot-glued back together again by hand. I liaised with clients with regards to content and design approval, publication layout, sourcing of materials and overseeing print production. Includes brief copywriting.
