Amazing street art in Laman Seni 7

For artists looking for some inspiration, or perhaps some motivation, I’d recommend you to spend some time there. I was incredibly surprised to find such beautiful graffiti artwork hidden behind a few shop-houses in Shah Alam. But of course, as usual, Malaysia likes to surprise me. If you haven’t been yet, you definitely should. Small performances, and sometimes pop-up shops, both sheltered only by a temporary plastic set-up, are sometimes found amongst all the street art.

Most of the street art is comprised of graffiti or painting directly onto the building exterior walls. All are thoughtfully created, for humor, reflection or simply for aesthetic. And in case you find your stomach start to rumble, there’s froyo and food in the vicinity.

There’s always something so bold about street art. The artists get the best everyday exposure, from everyday people. This particular street is slightly hidden, but once you get a glimpse of the bright and bold colors on the three-storey wall, there’s no way you aren’t curious enough not to take a look. And once you’re in, you’re in. Suddenly there’s more color, more shapes, more life in a back alley than you ever thought you’d find in Malaysia.
