Mendongeng - The Art of Storytelling

In the group exhibition “Mendongeng”, artists Amir Shahlan, Mati, and RB take on the role of storytellers, weaving narratives through repurposed objects. Their exhibits are said to be rooted in folklore, tales, and myth, offering comfort, inspiration, and a profound sense of meaning, while exploring the reason for our own being and existence. We find out more about the exhibition at AP Art Gallery from artist Amir, and the two artists behind the collective Mati, Amat and Binti.
