People, Ideas, Culture in Shaping the Shared Value Society

Abstract

In March 2017, the open call of artists in participate the LOCK UP locker art exhibition has been realized, whereby ten artists have created 24 artworks that can fit only into the compartment size of the two locker cabinets. This happened in collaboration with Harry Rogers Home furniture outlet and was touching on the issues of prisonary, corruption and LGBTQ in the closet. The success lead to the further prompt in curatorial work for the International Mother Earth Day: “Owls Know†Photography Exhibition and “Sea of Tears†group painting exhibition that gathered Singaporean, Malaysian, Philippino and Indonesian artists in pondering the issue of piracy and paperless children along Melacca Straits, South China Sea and Sulu Sea. To sum up, the survival of People Ideas Culture as social enterprise is based on the principal of “Shared Value, Shared Space†that allows the venue sponsorship to kick off most of the events, and using the art as tool to reach out the public who seems to be ignorant and apathetic via a subtle approach.
