Queensbay Mall Trompe-l'œil Street Art

Queensbay Mall Trompe-l'œil Street Art (20 January 2013)


For a temporary period only, visitors to Queensbay Mall can enjoy a series of trompe-l'œil street art. These are temporary façades for food outlets on the northern concourse of the North Zone. Eventually the concourse will form a new food precinct.

The trompe-l'œil street art depict the façade of various European-style buildings. The artwork depicts windows with windowsills, bushes, doorways and paintings hanging on the walls. Props are added to the murals, among them flower pots, chairs, tables, teacups, vases, even a bicycle.

While the trompe-l'œil street art are still around, visitors are welcome to have their photos taken with them. If you want to shoot these artworks, you'd better be quickl as they are not permanent. The following are some of the photos I've taken with them.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
