Wasteland Twinning

Guest Explorer in Wasteland Kuala Lumpur 1

04 Jan 2013 | Saubin Yap - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

In November to December 2012, artist Bec Stevens from Tasmania, Australia has been exploring and observing the Wasteland site in Kuala Lumpur. We had many discussion over her findings as well as questions on the practice of land acquisition and usage/development in the city.  She had discovered a new piece of 'wasteland' adjacent to the site too! More posting from our guest explorer to follow suit.

Rebecca Stevens was on the Asialink Art Residency in Rimbun Dahan, Kuang, Malaysia.
