Photo Exhibition - "Mirage"
January 2021
A photo exhibition presented by my team as part of our assignment for the module "Exhibition Management". Mirage talks about the increased domestic violence happening during the pandemic and raising awareness about the issue at hand.
Design process
-
Look and feel of the poster → Domestic violence represents negative emotions (abuse, anger, fear, suffocation) → Dark and gloomy background
-
It can happen to anyone → covered faces in the background
-
Domestic violence can hurt physically and mentally → Title of exhibition "Mirage" is broken font
-
Yellow texts to highlight key information of our exhibition
​
Strings are the main point of this zone "Manipulation" to represent how domestic violence is not always necessarily physical. Domestic violence can also bring psychological trauma through underhand tactics or indirect influence to take advantage of the victim. The colorful curtains and outlook creates a juxtaposition with the images to amplify the feeling of manipulation; positive on the outside but negative on the inside.

Verve: Tenacity 2020 - "Two-Faced Workshop" Lookbook and Magazine
December 2020
Verve is an annual arts festival organized by Year 2 students from the Diploma of Arts Business Management and this year we went virtual. Besides my departmental role in finance, I contributed greatly to the Verve x Lookbook for one of our workshops, "Two-Faced", which mainly focuses on Chinese Opera. I designed the content for both the Two-Faced workshop reflections by the participants as well as the overall lookbook magazine.
Design process
-
Referenced to popular fashion magazines such as Vogue and ELLE → strong fonts and colors to aid readability, and key content covered
-
Elements of photos behind the models → sneak peak preview of the photos in the look book
-
Red color scheme → in relation to Chinese Opera that red is a prosperous color
-
Traditional geometric borders → replicate the feel of Chinese culture

YES! Factor 2020
July 2020
As part of Oh! Verve Drive (OVD) which aims to raise funds for our annual arts festival "Verve", my team and I hosted a talent competition open to all Ngee Ann Polytechnic students to realize and discover hidden gems and talents. I was the host of the show and also helped with the content creation for our Instagram page (@yesfactor2020).
Design process
-
YES! is amplified with the stretched font → positive exclamation since this is a talent competition show
-
High color contrast color scheme → On the look for hidden gems and talents
​
I wrote my own script for the premiere with the help of my groupmates to put together the videos and getting people to register for our competition.
