"Do we want to be known as the generation who lost the Malayan Tiger and everything it represents ?'' - Curator Statement
BELANG : Save Our Malayan Tiger 2020 exhibition was held to create public awareness in the Malayan Tiger conservation. As the tigers are on the brink of extinction, BELANG aims to bring more attention to this fact and try to halt their decline.
The exhibition was launched in the month of March, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the gallery had to close its doors earlier than planned. However, the exhibition has now been taken to the virtual world in a form of a website.
A total of 73 artworks, which ranges from various paintings - oils, acrylics, watercolour, and ink, mixed media, photography, installations, digitals and sculptures graced their presence in the Penang State Art Gallery.
Though, a handful of artworks were already purchased before the Restricted Movement Order (RMO) commenced, but there are plenty more stunning artworks listed in the website that are still available to be purchased by all you tiger lovers out there !!
Besides those stunning artworks waiting to adorn your beautiful homes, there are other merchandises available as well; fridge magnet, T-shirts in various sizes, and the infamous BELANG tote bag.
Part of the proceeds from the sales of artworks will be donated to the Save Our Malayan Tiger Campaign fund by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks of Peninsular Malaysia (PERHILITAN).
