Once called graffiti, street art has bloomed in Malaysia with many artists turning dull buildings into tourist attractions. Since Lithuanian artist Ernest Zacharevic captured the hearts of many Malaysians through his wall paintings in Penang and Ipoh, the phenomenon has created a large following.
The love for art has led many aspiring artists in the Klang Valley to pull out their graffiti sprays and paintbrushes to dress up dull looking walls and back alleys, turning them into tourist attractions.
Instead of occupying your time in the busy streets of Kuala Lumpur , take a time to stop by and see a very different kind of street art that are scattered all around Kuala Lumpur. Experience the urban street art which every each of it has a rich history in both the culture and economics of the city it is created. For visitors, that means it’s easy to find these open-air museums, since they are usually located in high tourist areas, you barely have to look around.
The best way to take pleasure from it all is to venture along its small side lanes. While some covered pathways lead to dead ends, others will guide you to the busy street markets. However, if you look towards the Klang River just nearby, you will see a lot of graffiti along the river wall.
Many of downtown KL’s most notable works can be found adorning the Chinatown, Lebuh Ampang and Central Market areas, as well as sections of the Klang River embankment. The handiwork of Zacharevic and local artist Kenji Chai.
