Chinatown Funkytown by Marie Dargent
11-15 November 2024
Time weaves strange magic in Chinatown…
Imagine walking past the Rex Cinema or Central Market and seeing them transform before your eyes – familiar facades dissolving into explosions of colour, vintage photographs dancing with delicate French lace. This isn’t a dream, it’s “Chinatown Funkytown” – where French artist Marie Dargent turns our beloved KL landmarks into mesmerising mixed-media masterpieces.
40 years after first falling in love with these streets, Marie returns to tell Chinatown’s story of survival and revival. Each piece is a portal where past meets present, where heritage buildings refuse to fade into memory and instead burst into vibrant new life.
Come witness KL Chinatown as you’ve never seen it before. Trust us, these aren’t just artworks – they’re love letters to a neighbourhood that keeps reinventing itself.
Come drop by at Else KL anytime from Nov 1st-15th. See you there!
