The 'Culture Shock' pop-up exhibition in Kuala Lumpur showcases the works of renowned street artists alongside international talents, offering a unique and immersive art experience.

Street artist Cloakwork is showcasing his 'Cloak' series at the ' Culture Shock ' pop-up exhibition in Kuala Lumpur . The exhibition brings together diverse voices, planting a bold street art flag in the city’s cultural landscape and offering a thought-provoking exploration of urban expression.

The show, running until Jan 12 at the former Czip+ bookstore on Jalan Telawi 3 in Bangsar, features familiar names from the George Town and Kuala Lumpur art scenes, including Zacharevic, who founded Cultprint with partner/fellow artist Sheena Liam, as well as Azmi Hussin, Bibichun, Bono Stellar, Cloakwork, Kenji Chai, Low Chee Peng, Sliz, Tazone, Teebai and Trina Teoh.

The eye-catching works of international artists such as Isaac Cordal (Spain), Sam Lo (Singapore), Martha Cooper (United States) and Yok & Sheryo (United States) add an extra edge.As Cultprint evolved into a gallery space, it also introduced a residency programme (last year), dedicated to fostering a network of artists and nurturing their creative growth within a supportive community. 'Culture Shock aims to break the convention of how art is shown and experienced,' says Zacharevic. “We’re a team of artists that are doing things differently from commercial galleries, and since we’ve opened a gallery in Penang earlier this year (2024), our exhibitions have been attracting a lot of visitors,' he says. 'We decided to do a show in Kuala Lumpur because we wanted to see if our way of showing art would have a similar effect on visitors outside of Penang.' The presence of deejay decks, a T-shirt printing machine, and a graffiti (spray can) installation all suggest a gallery space that embraces everyone, regardless of their preferred art form.The exhibition unfolds across two levels, each offering a distinct experience
