Meet ‘Zahra’, the one-of-a-kind 4m x 3m wall mural created by celebrated international artist Mishell Leong for the launch of newly renovated iconic store The Big Blue Trunk Store located at Cluny Court - Singapore.
Unique, bold, strong and feminine; the vast, eye-catching wall installation was created using the multi-faceted and diverse products from world-renowned Annie Sloan Chalk Paint®. The stunning work boldly represents female empowerment and celebrates the talents, beauty and magic of women. The phenomenal textures, layers and depth of the stellar installation portray the intrinsic female complexities, alongside the versatility of Annie Sloan Chalk Paints and products.
Taking just under ten days to complete, the stunning art installation has just been unveiled for the re-opening of The Big Blue Trunk. Following its renovation, the store has transformed into a modern, contemporary Chalk Paint and family-friendly shop. The mural brings to life the store’s mission to ‘Make Every Day Beautiful’ by using decorative painting techniques to transform furniture and spaces.
“I am personally a huge fan of Annie Sloan’s Chalk Paint® and love using them. This collaboration creating ‘Zahra’ has been such a huge honour. I am extremely grateful to Deepti, Founder of The Big Blue Trunk for inviting me to create such an inspiring piece for the brand” Mishell Leong
Mishell is absolutely thrilled with the final concept. She says painting on such a large scale was such liberating experience which allowed her to truly project her signature colourful and vibrant style. Her vision has come alive to show clients at The Big Blue Trunk just how dynamic splashes of bright paint and texture can be creating amazing results.
In celebration of ‘Zahra’s’ debut at The Blue Trunk she is being launched as a 50cm x 70cm limited edition archival print of 25 Giclée Prints available for purchase from the start of November priced at USD$800 (SGD$1,080) inclusive of international shipping.
