SHOOSHIE SULAIMAN
MALAY MAWAR
Opening reception:
FRIDAY, June 10 from 6 to 9pm
Exhibition dates: June 11 - July 31, 2016
"Malay Mawar is the name of the rose species that Malays use on ritualistic occasions. Rituals activate the essence of everyday contemporary life to be more poetic. It is also the title for my show in a very symbolic way. I am celebrating my late mother’s existence in my memory
this year."

practice since my early involvement
