You Suck! So You Should Stop Being An Artist by Khairul Ehsani Sapari

Yeah, you heard me. Think I’m joking? Nope. And no, I’m not just trying to get your attention. By the way, if you’re a successful artist, this article isn’t for you. I hate you. Go away. Now move along...… Still here? Alright, let me tell you why you should stop being an artist. Let's address the elephant in the room: as an artist, you suck. You're not exactly selling like nasi lemak. No matter how many paintings, sculptures, or prints you produce, they're just not flying off the walls. The occasional red dot on your artwork's nameplate might have felt like a victory, but let's face it, those moments were few and far between. So, what do you do? You keep pouring money into canvas, paint tubes, and brushes, convincing yourself it's an investment for the future. But in reality, your studio space is slowly turning into a dusty storage unit, filled with unsold creations that seem more like burdens than assets. And we're just talking about those random open-c...

Malaysian 'CONTEMPORARY ART' Problems by Oshinobi お忍び

Nowadays, almost every fine artists and craftsmen in Malaysia uses the word 'contemporary art' to describe their artworks. Sure, 'contemporary' is a pretty sweet candy, like a fondant topping on top of a regular looking cake, used to attract possible buyers and admirers. Liam Gillick, an influential art critic accused the word for having an excessive usefulness. You can say that it is in the same category as strong words like 'organic' or 'premium'. A marketing ploy. But, what is 'contemporary art' anyway? Why is it becoming such a strong and popular word to advertise almost everything? And why our collective believe that contemporary art is facing many problems in Malaysia? First, let’s have a look at the linguistic meaning of that word. Artworks made by students of UiTM last year. In your opinion, which is more suitable to be given the classification of ‘contemporary art’? The Confusion in the Meaning of the Word In Oxford Dictionary, ...

Can a Chair Be a Work of Art? by Amir Amin

Chairs are democratic in a way that everyone knows what chairs are; we sit on chairs daily, and you can find one in almost every home. They are not limited in numbers, as they are mass-produced. Even limited editions exist in larger quantities compared to most works of art. So, how can one say a chair is a work of art? That was my question about a year ago, before my enlightenment—I started working in the furniture industry. Enter designs like the Serie UP 2000, Liberty Lounger, O., Knotted Chair, Vermelha, and Wrinkle, to name a few. This furniture is functional yet evokes questions in the mind—a thought I had when I first encountered these pieces. Now, can a chair be a work of art? The chair has long held symbolic meaning in art, often representing power and status. But what if the chair itself is a work of art, beyond just symbolic representation? When we look at the chairs mentioned earlier, they reveal sculptural qualities—the slightly curved backrest, bulbous shapes, fine details...
