For project 2A I decided to go Geylang and do Red Light District. While brainstorming I managed to come up with a quote for the place;
Love is not a one way street
It’s actually a play on the famous quote by an anonymous writer, “Love is a two-way street, not a one-way boulevard” which is not the case for Geylang where it’s famous for brothels.
When I was walking around Geylang, then an idea struck me, that I should actually take pictures of street objects, as it also adds strength to the quote that I picked.
Then I processed the photos as the photo looks very flat, so I adjusted the temperature to give a more vibrant but dark vibes.
I then arranged the individual letter with a asphalt tar background to emphasize the street.
First concept
And after consultation and review, I picked out those letter that were hard to read, and edit it to make it slightly clearer.
