A Few Malaysia(s)
Mixed media
Triptych (overall)
2018
"The bottom part of this triptych is a metal rack where I invite audiences to hang clothing, fabric or any materials that are red or white in colour to complete the imagery of the Malaysian flag," states the artist, who created "A few Malaysia(s)" as a response to the oft-cited aspirations of 1Malaysia.
"You can contribute to the exhibition as a Malaysia," beams Wei-Ling. "It’s also the idea of taking the shirt off your back. The clothes we wear protect us, but they also absorb our blood, sweat tears—our DNA."
