Walking into this semester, I was as nervous as before , my previous class felt hostile, and I was at a sorry state and let it get to me. My inability to care for myself properly at the time led me into a disastrous cycle of blame, shame and guilt. For the record, I don't blame anybody, I made my own bed.
However this time, things were really different, feeling grateful was an understatement for me, as I made the courage to contact the only contact I have saved in the class groupchat which changed everything for me.
Dina, introduced me to her circle, and we clicked, I even reunited with an old buddy - Article from semester one, I felt ready to thrive with the new found friends I have made. I was excited to finally experience a study trip and looked forward to the semester ahead.

ID I COME TO MY IDEA.

opportunities for artists to produce arts are declining due to prices of local rent and materials, leading them to create art at other places, leading to less artists meanwhile.

Design Statement (New) Design Statement (New)
the lost of Melaka's art’s identity on Becas
hypothesis hypothesis
There shall be 2 main spaces, beca creation & recreation, beca creation to host art workshops in designing the beca, and beca recreation to celebrate a beca's life and give it purpose after its supposed lifetime.
space that allows fellow art enthusiasts an opportunity to experience and make an impact with traditional arts through designing becas
restore of Becas identitiy with curated designs done by traditional art methods important to Melaka's culture.
ideal impact idealimpact
Art enthusiasts are now able to study and practice certain types of traditional art and leave a meaningful impact through the becas.
Tons of Becas are now carrying the proud designs of Melaka's craft methods and done by the locals.
people around me who are not involved art industry, are almost never involved or keen with the idea of arts, and perhaps this way of contributing to society, it could provide a shift of perspective
experienced artists and craftsmen that are unable to follow through their careers could come here as 'sifu's.
