Picturing a mosque from different vantage points


Mustaffa Ahmad Hidzir, better known as Tapa, contributes a photography series to this exhibition.

In Zaim Durulaman’s Hayya alal Falah – Masjid Sultan Sulaiman, a colourful array of footwear line the street. They are placed neatly at the mosque gates, and then extend towards the viewer and in all directions.

This artwork does a good job, at first glance, in convincing you that it is a familiar sight, despite its avalanche of slippers and propensity for hyperbole.
