Matahari 太阳

For generations, humanity has lived under the comforting certainty that the sun will always rise. Yet what if that certainty could no longer be taken for granted?

Performed by ZXC Theatre Troupe, “MATAHARI” is a visually striking post-apocalyptic fable that explores the fragile relationship between humanity and the natural world. Once revered as the source of life, the sun now stands as a silent witness to centuries of human ambition, exploitation, and neglect. As environmental collapse looms and the fate of the sun itself hangs in the balance, humanity is forced to confront the consequences of its actions.

Blending powerful storytelling with compelling imagery, MATAHARI invites audiences into a future where darkness threatens to become permanent and the promises between people and planet have long been forgotten. In the face of an uncertain tomorrow, the work poses a haunting question: if the sun were to disappear, what would become of us?

Converge 匯聚

Emerging from the earth like a living organism, “Converge” by Taiwanese artist Kuei-Chih Lee transforms Taman Kejiranan Macallum into a space where nature, people, and the city come together. Inspired by George Town’s history as a port city shaped by migration and cultural exchange, the large-scale installation reflects on coexistence through five sculptural forms that rise organically from the ground. Intertwining like a growing settlement, the structures merge into a single collective form, echoing the many communities, languages, and traditions that have long flourished in Penang.

Con-Temporary Art

What if an entire contemporary art gallery could fit in the palm of your hand? Con-Temporary Art (CTA) by Joshua Kon and Arrvinrajis invites audiences into a miniature world where big ideas unfold on a 1/12-scale stage. Housed within a meticulously crafted travelling gallery, this unique project serves as a creative playground for artists to experiment, test bold concepts, and explore possibilities beyond the limits of conventional exhibition spaces. Small in size but vast in imagination, CTA challenges perceptions of scale and invites visitors to discover how contemporary art can surprise, provoke, and inspire in the most unexpected ways.
