For those who missed, here are some photos!

The talk on "Why Art?":

Why Art ?

Is art important ?

The art around us.

Talking about how other similar projects inspired Semai.

Nice silhouette.

An analysis on the perception of knowledge from the East and the West. Taking into consideration Eastern's and Western's cultural and social background.

Other than telling the concepts of art, we also hoped to convey the message that creativity is an integral tool in education, and how creativity can change the dead-pan, pedantic, scholastic, ontological, meritocratic, study-for-exam-only education system that we have here.

Thanks to Choo Ping Hao, David Xavier and Lau Mengq Yek for documenting the entire process. And also for helping out on the presentation.
