Ang Chien Wen - Photography of the subject matter that we chosen (Graffiti)

We had choose ‘graffiti' as our subject matter to the field guide.


I found that the graffiti is quite nice to choose as our subject matter because the graffiti in Malaysia had their own style. Some of the graffiti also bringing their own meaning. Some of them are representing Malaysia culture. 
Figure 1: Graffiti at Long River Pasar Seni, legal for the graffiti artist to make art there

Figure 2: Graffiti at public places (window, post box, shop houses' walls and glass window), 
illegal and will clean up anytime
 Figure 3: Graffiti at side of the shop houses' walls, illegal space to draw graffiti and will moving away

 Figure 4: Graffiti at the shop houses' walls and steel wall, illegal to draw the graffiti at this places

 Figure 5: Graffiti at under bridge wall and side wall of the shop houses, illegal and flexible

  • Figure 1 is the legal place for the graffiti artist to show their talent for drawing the graffiti. So, it will be fixed at that place for the people to see from the top of the Pasar Seni LRT station. The graffiti are located at the opposite  of the Pasar Seni LRT station along a long river.
  •  Figure 2 to Figure 5 are the illegal graffiti at the public places in KL around the Pasar Seni. So it was not fixed at the public places.
  •  Our focus place of graffiti will be the Long River Pasar Seni, opposite Pasar Seni LRT station. There is more than 10 graffiti.
  •  So, my next step is to do research on each graffiti at the Long River Pasar Seni and the graffiti artist of each graffiti. Their title of graffiti and also the styles of each graffiti.

=[other subject matter that i captured like light (light stand, light bulb and lantern)
