Lo(ro)ng Sighted is an amalgamation of two terms: Lorong (Malay for “alley”; in line with the location of the instruction) & long-sighted (the inability to see nearby objects).

It draws inspiration from the artists’ chance encounters of peculiar sights found in back alleys – an often overlooked place that appears ordinary. The instruction encourages one to investigate our seemingly mundane surroundings, and in doing so, observe the scenes that reflect the traces of modern life and the human role that lies therein.
