Zine Voyages: Dreams Unleashed Photo Booth
Raffles University’s 视觉传达设计大专文凭 students recently organised the “Dreams Unleashed Photo Exhibition” in collaboration with PKBB SHUANG FU JB. This exhibition, held at the university’s campus, aimed to raise awareness for Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 10: Reduced Inequalities, while also supporting Persons with Disabilities (PwDs).视觉传达设计大专文凭 students’ final digital photography portfolio is required to create a documentary photo for PKBB SHUANG FU JB in Johor Bahru.
The Dreams Unleash Photo Exhibition, held from 18 March to 21 March, showcased a visual narrative of hope and empowerment through photography captured at the Double Blessing Centre. The exhibition also featured merchandise, including keychains, brochures, and bookmarks, created by 视觉传达设计大专文凭 students. As part of the exhibition, there was a sharing session on 20 March from 11 am to 12.30 pm. This session provided attendees with a deeper understanding of the stories behind the photographs and the experiences of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs).
Through this “Dreams Unleashed Photo Booth”, 视觉传达设计大专文凭 students show the working & learning lifestyle of the disability person (PwDs) in the community. At the same time, these photos also show how 视觉传达设计大专文凭 students care for their disabled friends and how Double Blessing fosters meaningful charity activities. In this exhibition, they created 5 zine books and some lovely merchandise for charity sales, and all the profit raised from the event is donated to PKBB SHUANG FU JB. It was a meaningful opportunity to engage with the community and gain insights into their lives.
