The “Projecting freedom” project holds profound significance and impact, drawing inspiration from global artist JR’s street art while pioneering large-scale community engagement with visual aesthetics in Malaysia. This endeavor centers on the theme of freedom, aiming to inspire hope and encouragement within Taman Desaria, an underprivileged community in Subang Jaya.

The first phase will begin with the planning of a heartwarming potluck and photography session in the Playground area. Inviting children, teenagers, and parents, the event will provide an opportunity for creative expression. Simple props representing esteemed professions, such as scientists, astronauts, and directors, will encourage imaginative posing, capturing the community’s aspirations.

In the second phase, the images will be edited in black and white and printed in large formats. These photographs, showcasing the potential and dreams of the residents, will be displayed on 13 five-storey walls, transforming neglected spaces into symbols of hope and resilience. This art installation will challenge perceptions and foster a sense of pride and unity within the neighborhood.
