YOUTH (2012) by Simone Foo
Born and raised in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Simone Foo is an interior design graduate thrilled with experiences over materialism. She believes life is art, where change is constant. Though young and emerging, she wishes to inspire the movement of transformation by sharing world-views that transcend polarisations, extremity and shame among communities. Simone has also exhibited her artworks in several art & culture events held in Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya.
