What’s in a print? And why?
When you print and frame photographs, you give memories and feelings a physique. They become windows for reflection and avenues of deeper meaning - faithful companions in an increasingly digital world that has us on an infinity scroll.
These photographs are printed on archival grade, fine-art textured silk paper by a professional print maker & art reproduction specialist. The wooden frames are handmade by my friend Jun, a third-generation frame-maker in the heart of George Town, Penang. Each is strictly made-to-order, guided by love and an attention to detail.
No two frames are truly alike. From wood grains to characteristic markings of something that is handmade, those hidden smudges of paint and minute scuffs are all perfect in their imperfection. You’ll know it and feel it when you have the finished work in your hands.

Framed generations, on Kimberley Street. Jun, in search of the right glass for a frame. He learned the trade from his father, who still runs the shop’s day-to-day affairs. The Leow family has been in the framer’s industry for over three generations.
