Giant canvas of old men, women and children faces from different part of the world were displayed at the main exhibition centre of Tun Razak Hall.
I’ve taken many photographs of his wonderful paintings however I must admit that the camera wouldn’t do just to his original vibrant painting colours — I’m afraid that you just have to visit the museum to see for yourself!
I’m told that this is the best-seller among the many beautiful portrait postcards available on sale at the Sarawak Museum. She is a Penan girl from Bario, Sarawak. (Painted in 2006)
With colourful giant portraits as the background, this section of the exhibition somehow become the best spot for photograph shooting
