My Island
installation by Liew Chee Heai

about the event
I want to create a poetic, large scale visual installation that contains slices of my life memories living on an island.
KongsiKL’s space is masculine - exposed iron roof trusses, bare concrete floor, straight lines.
The nature of an island in contrast is soft and mysterious in solitude. The installation will soften the KongsiKL space.
