Johor artist takes being productive during MCO to new level with Covid-19-themed mural

Due to the MCO’s restrictions, Fakhrul Zaman said he could only use his side of the house wall, which is a corner lot, to paint the mural.

JOHOR BARU, April 12 — From getting fit to tackling that mothballed DIY project, there are many ways to make your time at home during the movement control order as productive as possible.

The piece composed of emulsion paint charts the evolution of the deadly virus from its initial detection in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province in China, into a full-blown global emergency. “This, in turn, inspired me to come up with the imagery that was later translated into the mural,” he said when contacted by Malay Mail.

The 44-year-old visual artist and full-time art curator also pointed out the mural’s hashtags such as #JanganMacamSiamang and #DukRumah that are related to the restrictions under the MCO that was imposed nationwide on March 18.
