KL Street Art Festival 2013 @ 1Shamelin Shopping Mall, KL



I just realized that I had not uploaded pics from the 2013 KL Street Art Festival. 

Firstly, we were fooled ... literally. 

We were under the impression that artists would be drawing on the streets whilst the flea market was going on and the crowd could watch the artists draw / paint.

We soon realized that the flea market was indoors and the artwork were painted on shutters. 

The only activity on the street was skateboarding ... within the vicinity of the mall's main entrance! 

Secondly, the parking in 1Shamelin Mall is a hassle ... you'll need to drive ALL THE WAY UP as they had cordoned off parking spaces at the lower levels ... then you'll need to go ALL THE WAY DOWN to visit the flea market.

Not only that, despite the mall being somewhat new ... the parking bays look really run-down, as if it was not maintained properly and had poor lighting, let alone CCTVs.

We pushed this disappointment aside and spent time checking out the booths and artwork ... hoping to capture great shots to make up for the disappointment.

Here you go ...






The flea market: 








To find these artworks, it's like a maze ... think of long narrow halls with shutters on both sides ... you could literally run around without anyone noticing or play hide-and-seek with your toddler (exactly what we did ...) ... of course, one parent was with her the entire time.
