TRADigital MYTHMaking Exhibition

MITOS TRADISIONAL & ANIMASI DIGITAL anjuran
Fakulti Teknologi Kreatif & Artistik dengan kerjasama
Goethe-Institut Malaysia & Persatuan Animasi Malaysia

Hello dudes how have you been! Started with your gold-digging journeys yet? :D

I have received an invitation from the President of Malaysia's Animation Society to attend this "Tra-Digital Myth-Making" exhibition's opening ceremony on 15th July (Wednesday).

The exhibition is mainly showing a selection of artistic works by students and studios that will open your eyes to many Asian myths, folklore and legends with themes relevant to the 20th century, and the digital age that are capable of being transferred to the animation medium for a global audience (I could somehow relate it to our FYP theme)!

Another special thing about it is that there will be classical performances played by some really cool artists (not sure if they're from Singapore or local tho).

Anyway, if you are very free at home or bored of works, just go and explore more art! :)
You may click on the below images to enlarge.
