VICTORY was certainly sweet for Mohd Redzuan Mohd Ali as he was declared the winner in the Best Category – Tokyo City in the recently concluded KL Street Art Festival 2013 (KLSAF 2013), the first legal street art festival .

The competitio­n was organised by 1Shamelin Shopping Mall KL in collaborat­ion with Malaysian Youth Community (MYC). It aimed to provide a platform for budding artists to exhibit their work and to showcase their skills. Winners were chosen based on originalit­y, creativity and effectiven­ess.

More than 100 participan­ts took part in this competitio­n. Each contestant was given one shop where they were to paint on the store shutter freely based on a theme that represente­d Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo and Seoul.

Mohd Redzuan is currently pursuing a Diploma in Graphic Design at the Faculty of Informatio­n Sciences & Engineerin­g (FISE), Management & Science University (MSU).

“I would like to thank MSU, particular­ly my lecturers. They make lessons very lively and further stimulated my interest in creative arts,” said Mohd Redzuan. He also expressed his appreciati­on to his parents for their constant support.
