MURAL art involves more than just painting a wall. The art depicts a message, captures a moment in time, and sometimes creates awareness.
“Wall art, just like other art forms, [represents] the culture of our time. It could be a moment, a memory, or something that matters to someone, at a point of time,” said Sarawak-born artist Daphne Siaw Ai Lin.
