Pressed for Freedom

It's not easy.

Pencil

With all the styli out there trying to mimic the real thing, let's not for one moment forget the pencil. At least not this generation.

恭喜發財 2016

May the year of the monkey be a healthy and happy one! And one where Malaysia gets back on track.

Before the Dance

The Goat, the Torch and the Monkey

Id like to take this opportunity to wish you a very happy Chinese New Year! It is the year of the monkey so you could expect a passing of the torch ceremony. After all, it is a Olympics year. Here's my version:

The "I'm Your Father" Meh

Do you think the "I'm your father" from Star Wars had been overused as a joke over the decades since  the movie? When I saw it in one of the Toy Story movies I thought it was funny. But then, that was never the first nor the last time it would happen. And... here's my version just before the goat hands over the torch to the monkey.

How the dead and trash shadow your thoughts

Art can be anything. Even trash and dead animals. While further enforcing the fact that life is not what it always seems to be, these awesome sculptures remind us about waste and poor abandoned dead animals on the streets.
To create their jaw-dropping sculptures, the duo arranges their finds into forms that include everything from scrap metals, personal items, empty packaging, and dead animals that were recovered on the streets, or 'gifted' to them by their grandmother's cats. Once the pieces are finished, the artists use a projector to cast light upon the sculptures, and in turn reveal shadows that range from cities to copulating rats to our most intimate acts.
No doubt these reminded me of the similarly creative game Shadowmatic.
