We’re deeply saddened to hear of the passing of artist Samsudin Wahab. Buden was in the first edition of the ILHAM Art Show (2022) with his wonderful work “Ibu-Pegun”, a sculpture made of coconut husks. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and all those who loved him.

Please note that The Gallery is currently closed for maintenance work and preparations for our next exhibition. We look forward to welcoming you back on 16 June 2026. The Gift Shop remains open as usual. Photo: Kenta Chai
