ikan pari more than any other pari pari
#before I go back into the cycle of work to make more kerja art - work , enslaved to the reality but also part of the magic is somehow making it look effortless.
so many versions of who others assume me to be out in the world, that sometimes I wear them only to be confused that its anything but what fits me.

A memory like clothing with textures
1. Went back to my hometown Penang as a family unit after more than a decade to touch base with late mom’s side for raya, brought up remnants of the past, and what it means for the very young me at the time, and with recollection what it presents to be now
2. In my collection of textiles, some vintage, some kamdar + sis’s personal creation at Armenian street against the decadent Baba- Nyonya tiles
3. Cult with friends for a final discussion on Poesy before it heads of to its new home, a museum by Dr Tan of Urmu in Port Dickson
4. Me as a worm for a reading room’s workshop at tintabudi on exploring sound
5. Kelingkan embroidering, feeling at home and thinking about Kak Nik’s perserverance and attentiveness in the craft
6. My very handsome Pakistani - Pashtun Babaji ( Tok / Grandfather )
7. Apom hunting in Penang, followed by antique works in leroy’s family shop
8. Reading Roger Scruton’s views and ideas on ‘Beauty’ while being reminded of how Im most at home with the trees and the wind behind my back that I grew up with in Bagan Lalang Beach

Went to a Silver Smithing workshop with my sister, by the talented @leroyluar when we were back in our hometown. We both through the years had worn some of his beautiful pieces,
it was an in depth experience learning the processes involved — from the sawing, filling, burnishing - polishing, firing, doming, soildering, stippling, boiling ettccccc
my piece (me being creatively ambitious) was very stubborn in the making, it didn’t want to conform 😂🧎🏻♀️leroy said at times even with the right metrics and methods, the pieces would have their own air and semangat, imbued by the makers. It makes one think about the finesse in exercising brute strength — while negotiating a sense gentleness too with the pieces to mold accordingly, so the end piece is attentively halus.
a treat to have made custom made pendants while in my hometown in Penang. If you’re ever in town, drop by Chulia where his studio is located within his family run antique shop and give the workshop a try.

Poesy (2025)
Conceptual Photography printed on Chiffon, Voile, Cotton Fabric, Light beaded embellishments , Text Embroidery
200 x 105cm
“Poesy”, a reversal in cloth styling and the many layers of a woman’s prayer dress. The piece plays with the meaning and materiality in fabric and act of wearing. The four fabric layers— likened to pages of a book— each carry a different fragment of the same image, revealing and concealing in harmony, presenting a balance between concealment and exposure, performing the nature of ambiguity in poetry. The gentle shifts in fabric and form explore the intimacy and fluidity of devotion.
The show runs from 8 March onwards.

If you’ve known me since my days of blogging when I was 15, you’d know I always have been one that conventions would fail to grasp and in interviews or articles —- they’re extracted and written as excitingly so. Of open vulnerabilities and defiance packaged in one.
from my habit of journaling, I wrote a piece lightly stitching together various parts of how art, fashion and trauma converge to seep synonymously into the fabric of my life after seeing a clinician to check whether I was considered autistic following the advise of people I cared for,
but found something entirely different that unravelled an entire’s practice, so for my birthday I made it into art 🐑🧎🏻♀️🤍

opened a flood gate of ideas im tenacious to test out once im back 🐑🧎🏻♀️

Last November, Enda, a good friend of mine who is an art researcher - curator - artist himself was in town, hosted him around during his short visit to talk about pending projects amongst other things, mapping art as an ecosystem.
Enda is part of the collective, Ruang Rupa and runs a separate art collective at Pontianak, his hometown.
Through the years we often work and bounce off ideas ever since my short residency period at Gudskul Jakarta in 2019 in which we got acquainted and from work have caught on meeting during joint art escapades in several countries, Germany - Indonesia - Malaysia

I have a life long love for the wind, amongst the other elements its possibly my favorite, growing up near the beach, lake and a swamp, days are often quiet and windy, hardly anyone would be around, so much so my playtime involved me roaming around making ‘crafty’ projects from rocks, twigs or flowers, and fishing. On extra windy days i’d stand in the middle of the empty roads and enjoyed the waves of wind, even my wearing of long pinless shawls were a reflection of admiring how they’d flow with it, down to the dandelion flower being a favorite since it floats nomadically and is carried by the wind.
in my many journal - sketchbooks, I expressed this as ‘Dibelai tuhan’ There’s much that I appreciate in living a very vibrant inner life

Is there an art is self esteem? how it seeps into your work formats and how it comes to present itself?
working briefly last year as an arts teacher for a kid’s tuition centre with a number of the kids being autistic. I saw first hand the sight of a teacher ridiculing one the kid’s pieces quite publicly which he was just seconds ago showing off,
sort of a common setting for kids growing up doing art in levels of it and I’ve seen how it later presents in life, with how little understanding we have of art and expression being vital in development, completely oblivious to how much of it is around actually sustaining us.
so if anything,
orang seni,
have more audacity.

on my art practice that explores how identity and belief manifest visually, particularly in the sentimentalities and relationship of the body in clothing - fabric, and how these narratives shape internal beliefs and external environments.
