art

Art is both a source of comfort and catharsis for me. It lets me experience and/or express my ideas and feelings, especially the ones that I find hard to verbalise.I like experimenting with different forms of art, although I typically lean towards a cartoonish/childish style. I do doodle-journalling (I call this doojo hehe) and calligraphy/lettering sometimes.These days, I tend to make art related to culture, identity, mental health, intersectionality, and everyday life. Here are some examples of my recent work:

Before 2020, I was mostly doing traditional art/crafts. I still do them and am hoping to learn many more art forms/techniques. Below are some examples of what I've tried:

One of the coolest art projects I've done was working on a 30,000 sqft mural with 24 other artists from KLSketchNation in 2020. Here's a montage of what we did and how it turned out:

Writings

As a verbivore, I flex my creative muscles using words whenever I can, for fun and/or for reflection. I believe in the power of words to move hearts and effect change.I have been a blogger for over 10 years on numerous topics. I also write poetry, some of which have been published in zines and/or performed at JALAN DALAM, katakvtv, and kata.mata.One of my poems is featured on @katakvtv on Instagram.
Some of my public poems are available here.
