Datin Paduka Marina Mahathir, a leader, a human rights activist and positive voice for non-governmental organizations such as the Malaysian AIDS Foundation and sisters of Islam, officially launched The Chairity for cancer exhibition yesterday at the Edge Galerie, KL.

This project was initiated by National Cancer Society Malaysia (NCSM) to raise cancer awareness. 15 Malaysian based artist were invited to create a series of artwork using an armchair as their canvas.

I was invited in October 2013 to participate in this event. I received the chair in Dec, a few months later and was busy working on it. I stressed and panic over how to convey the message thought my artwork, but now seeing the final product on display at the art gallery, I feel a sense of relief. I feel proud and honoured to be part of this project.

Launch of Naked restaurant and August Man ‘Man of the year’ Party at Zebra Square, #KL

It’s the festive month of December and it’s party season. Last Thursday was a bit of fun and madness. I went to 3 events in one night. The Launch of Naked restaurant and bar, Art auction for Haiyan and the August Man Magazine “Man of the Year” Party.

My outfit was kind of thrown together last minute as usual. I found the lovely dress in a bag of clothes my friend just donated to me. I was rummaging through it because I was in panic mode and could not find anything to wear. It was a baby doll dress which i with paired with an orange belt and I think it worked!

Destination 1: Launch of Naked restaurant and Bar

Destination 2: A quick detour to the Art auction in aid of typhoon victims in Haiyan organised by group of Malaysian artists, art collectors and enthusiasts, in colaboration with Mercy Malaysia and Henry Butcher. 100% of the money raised went to the charity.
