Initially, GMBB, located in Jalan Robertson in Bukit Bintang, started with just two filled floors, but it has since flourished into a vibrant hub with over 100 diverse tenants spread across nine floors. “The pandemic really took the wind out of our sails, but we are glad that things have tapered off since then, and we have managed to build what we envisioned in 2018, slowly but surely,” said Lim Ying Hui, general manager of GMBB.
“Being the ‘new kids on the block’ in the culture and arts industry, we had to reach out to a lot of arts practitioners in the beginning which was not easy. But as our network began to grow, and we connected with different types of artists, we can see that there is a shared philosophy among them, which is to showcase art by young creatives and bring them closer to Malaysians and the general public,” said Lim.
Fusion Wayang Kulit, another key tenant, is led by an award-winning team focused on revitalising traditional shadow puppetry and storytelling by infusing it with pop culture elements. Gangsapura serves as a contemporary Malay gamelan centre, dedicated to preserving and evolving the art of traditional music.
Additionally, GMBB hosts several independent studios run by artists on the autism spectrum, adding to the diverse and inclusive creative community within the mall.
