Arts for the Environment is a collective of Malaysian artists, who donate their services in kind to showcase the uniqueness of the Malaysian environment to the public. We hope that through Arts for the Environment, Malaysians become more aware and appreciative of their environmental heritage. Our current project involves the preservation of mangrove areas in Southern Johor.

Lighting and Artwork

Did some lighting tests on the exhibition photographs. It may be better to light it with white light for this nusajaya exhibition (Feb 23) given the colors in the photos.

Example images

Inspirational installation

Silvia just showed me this traveling installation made from ship containers that is incredibly beautiful. They used hangings, perhaps like our dura-trans printed photographs. http://ashesandsnow.org/

Floor Plan for Nusajaya Exhibit (Feb 23)


Soraya did the photo selects from Ariff's, Shahril's and Kamaruddin's photos. The installation was initially designed by the team on a paper mock-up with cut-out images of the actual photos. It was then developed into a sketchup 3D model as well as a digital floor plan and photo visualizations.

The sketchup files are at http://groups.google.com/group/artsforenvironment/files.


walkway3.skp is a properly scaled model but to see the pictures clearly look at walkway2.skp (not scaled correctly but pictures are bigger). To view you can download a free viewer at sketchup.

Below are some renditions on the look and feel of the exhibit.

Please note that the art in the images may not be in right location.
