THROUGH THE LENS of Malaysian Artists

THROUGH THE LENS of Malaysian Artists

There are many varied reasons why art is important to society—a simple definition of art is that ‘art is order’. And as Malaysians, we’re famous for letting raw talent go unnoticed. Nine out of 10 times, we are unaware of our own local talent until that person has made it on the billboards of some foreign land. It’s even more competitive when it comes to something as subjective as visual art, where everyone’s a critic. Many Malaysian artists who work relentlessly are practically unknown, which is a shame considering how awesome their art is. At Augustman, we believe that good art should be valued and shared, so we’ve compiled a list of talented Malaysian artists and their artworks that are currently showcased at ILHAM Art Show in Kuala Lumpur.
