After the mini reconstruction it looks much better to me now. The aging paint on the wall and road is more realistic than the 2017 version. I've also added some object details in both the shophouse and coffee shop.   The 60 years old Ho Kow kopitiam is no longer located at Lorong Panggung.  I brought it back to Kuala Lumpur few days ago, and took a contrast photo with the real scene. This artwork is now exhibited in @ Pandan Republic, Lorong Panggung. Check it out if you're interested.

 As time goes by, the skill and accuracy on making diorama has improved. The darn perfectionism in me started to think of reconstructing the mini shophouse I made for Lorong Panggung 2 years ago. Basically I remain all the windows and doors as they look pretty good to me, and transfer them into a new wall. The main thing I ain't satisfy with is the weathering and paint I applied to the wall.  The size is slightly amended too. We will see how is it going till next time.
誠心感謝八度空间 和 Story Art Studio幕後團隊的用心拍攝。 拼湊記憶第九集 - 《收藏回憶的人》 This was a project I started to make since October 2017. It is a kopitiam (coffee shop) located at Lorong Panggung, Kuala Lumpur. Since it is for my personal collection, the work is made in my own pace without worrying about the deadline. However, it was sad to know that this 60 years old shop is going to close down in May of this year. Coincidentally, Atlas Obscura and the filmmaker approached me at this moment to make a video for that. It's such a good timing to produce a precious documentary for all of us, recording both real and miniature ver. of this kopitiam. Million thanks to Lucas Veuve for this wonderful video. We have spent so many hours and days to film at both of my studio and Ho Kow kopitiam. Let's check out his amazing video here ↓↓ In conjunction with the launching of movie Ant-Man and the Wasp, we're grateful to have the chance to collaborate with SAYS and Marvel to shoot a series of photographs of Ant Man in my miniature kitchen and provision shop for advertising in the social media.

Assembling and painting done by me. 不知道是哪來的偏方，上台前有人教我在手心上寫個“人”字，把它吞下去，你就不會緊張了。我照做，還真的奏效耶！ 👍 短短六分鐘，承蒙团队一直給予的各種幫助、指點和鼓勵，讓我能在 #Tedx PetalingStreet 的舞台上傳播漣漪。要感謝的人還有太多太多，因為在這裡我所遇到的每一位都教會了我很多事。 有時候做袖珍就是一種自虐的過程，因為耗時它會消磨你的耐心，因為必須長時間專注它會消磨你的精神。可是如果享受整個過程，卻會讓你用另一個視角去看待這世界。昨天所經歷的，所學的，都讓我有了新角度去經營這人生。 由衷感謝！期待下一次再度相聚！ #Tedx茨廠街 #Ripples2017 #漣漪人2017 |
