The campaign, an extension of Celcom’s I CAN campaign, aims to rescue, rehabilitate and, ultimately, rehome stray cats.
Cuteness aside, stray cats don’t have it easy. Every day, they face exposure to diseases, abuse and traffic.
According to curator Phillip Wong, the objective of the ICAN Care art exhibition is to show that anyone can show compassion and love towards cats in their own special way. The featured artists included names such as artists Sivarajah Natarajan, Chua Suzi, Fiona Loo Suenn Yin ,Elaine Wong, Johan Ishak, Sharon Ong, Audrey Lim, Jessie Loke, Janet Lee, Harsyieta, Yung Mujein, Yung Luwenn, Jazper Cheah, Joelyn Cheah, Tieo Mei Xuan, Tieo Mei Jie, Dorothys Wong, Emmanuel Cheun, Chang Hoe Tin, Yuna Ong and Oscar James French.
Their pieces were sold at the exhibition, with a portion of the proceeds going to a local charity. Another highlight of the exhibition was artwork produced by artists as young as five. They are now learning with Wong at his Everyone Can Paint art class. But it’s not just the cats Wong wants to highlight.“I will continue to bring more exposure to these artists in the art industry as they tell more meaningful stories along the journey,” he said.
If you missed last August’s exhibition, another cat art exhibition is underway during quarter three of this year and this time it will include wild cats.. Those interested in Wong’s work can view his art at Phillip Wong Atelier and Gallery@HomeSweetHome or reach [email protected].
