Carsten Witte is a German creative photographer that focused on the local architecture in Kuala Lumpur for his latest series fittingly entitled, 'Kuala Lumpur Deconstruction.' The illustrations creatively showcase the buildings and skyscrapers in the community through a distorted perspective that blurs the lines and colors present in the structures.
The illustrations focus on buildings that are in construction or in the process of being teared down, by highlighting the work-in-progress status. The illustrations highlight the traditional and culture of Kuala Lumpur as seen in its buildings that are tall, modular and tightly packed in design. The blurred aesthetic to the photos further highlights the impressive standing of the structures even through the shape's details are rendered hidden.
