About the Book
Foreword by Eric Peris
Silent Wall began as a collective photo-project by several enthusiasts, examining ways of documenting the hand-painted mural of the external perimeter wall of Kuala Lumpur's iconic Pudu Jail in 2008.
Soon to be demolished, the mural depicting landscapes and nature was photographed and collated into bookform here, preserved for future generations of KL-ites, to ponder and reminisce as the form of a new retail development rises over its former site.
Demolition began in 2010.
