Everyone’s A Critic - Between Spaces

Two different artists with different styles come together in Between Spaces to reflect on their experiences and emotions during the Covid-19 pandemic. Caryn Koh’s paintings display a pervasive sense of loneliness by using the figure of a woman in soft, pastel tones, while Wong Ming Hao uses his face and figure with acrylic paint-skins to depict an isolated world where people often present a version of themselves. We review the exhibition, and discuss how art has been representing the pandemic.

Everyone's A Critic is jointly presented with CENDANA. For updates on Malaysian arts and culture, visit BASKL.
