Consolation Prize at Citra Terengganu 2018


My painting won the consolation prize in the live painting category at #CITRATERENGGANU2018 hosted by @muziumterengganu 

 Its quite awesome to see my painting hanging in the museums gallery. Not sure how long it will be on display but all the winners art is there. Feeling grateful to be one of the winners in a competition full of amazing artist. Will share some of the winners pictures when I'm back. 


Thank you to the museum for playing such wonderful gracious hosts and helping wherever possible. And for the state to be supportive to the art community. The museum is the only one that hosts art competitions. Thanks for encouraging artists across Malaysia through the competition. 

 Thank you to the judges as well. More than 140 people took part in both categories, the highest number in the history of the competition. 


The painting now becomes part of the museums collection and to be honest was a bit hard to say goodbye to it. 

 I had a wonderful two days talking to the museum team and visitors who stopped by curious of my art. Thank you to all. 

 Title: Gadis songket terengganu 
Size: 93x93cm

 This is part of my reimagined human series which is an attempt to simplify the human figure and break down race and colour barriers by painting them in various shades of colours. She is wearing the
terengganu songket baju kurung teruk belanga. The background is the patterns from the famous terengganu wood carvings.
