    however, the wallflower has more than meets the eye.

  • Metaphorically, The Government Rest House is much like a wallflower and this photobook documents a day in its life. This photobook is also a journal to document all the measured

    drawing activities that took place in the rest house during our stay in Batu Gajah.
