Hong Yi (RED) at the CAG Asylum

Do you know who's the lovely lady in the middle of the pic below?

her name is Hong Yi. She's an artist/architect and she do portrait of famous people and other stuffs in huge scale without using paintbrush. Check out her works, they are amazing..

from what we can see is that her works process is what makes her works amazing.

it's not easy to simple came out with an idea and execute it in.

Last month she had her art project happening here in KK and while she was here,

it was an honor for us that she dropped by the CAG Asylum to see the place, chat a while while drinking at Santola Bar Cafe, tour the coffee factory and exchange ideas.

Hopefully will get to do some sort of collaboration within this year. Her schedule are packed.

this is a very weird moment for us... hahaha

Thanks a million Dinoza..

CAG Circus next stop Kuala Lumpur

CAG Circus

Sabah's CAG (Cracko Arts Group) was formed over 2 years ago, comprising artists from various backgrounds, with the same burning passion for art.

CAG has always been active in bringing Sabah's art movement to the world. This is the CAG Circus 2nd stop after ChinaHouse Penang exhibition in November 2012.

It is part of CAG's move to showcase the various genre of Sabah's mixed arts today.

Aptly themed "Circus", this exhibition portrays Sabah's very special inclusiveness; at times seen by non-Sabahans to be surreal, voicing out the differences,

but at the same time display unity in a multi-racial/ethnic and social environment.

Here in Sabah one can find a Chinese eating in a Malay restaurant, and vice versa, without being frowned upon. Worship places of different religions can be seen being built almost side by side without any conflict. Such cohesive diversity has projected to outsiders a weirdly impression of a large community of 'circus' inhabitants.
So come in, be a part of the seemingly motley crew of 'circus' freaks. Set aside our perceptions, put on your merry hats, and share in our great journey of self discovery, respect and acceptance of the differences around us.
Welcome to the “CAG Circus” show!

will tell more on what happen after the opening on the 13th of Jan...

it's this sunday... if you happen to be in KL at 3pm..
