A Stroll Down A Living Heritage Community

2009 November 26

So what can one do on a saturday afternoon? Well for me, I had been thinking to visit the Clan Jetty again after the Bangun Penang Clan Jetties Art Project Sept 2009.

It wasnt a good day as the sky was cloudy and it had drizzle before. But I decided to pick up my camera and my tripod, Andrea decided to accompany me and be my ‘grid girl’ (holding the umbrella for me)

We are lucky to witness this site which is under renovation, the whole building was striped naked and only kept upright by stilts or wooden poles implanted into  bucket of dried cement on the base of the building. This is truely an amazing sight! The buckets or the based are sitting on top of a layer of mud….

Another close-up on the based of the foundation….or is there any foundation at all??

some art pieces left over from the Bangun Project

Another artist installation at the site.

and more about the Bangun Art Project:

Bangun is an ongoing series of contemporary site-specific art projects focusing on history, heritage, community and culture.  For this project, Bangun will bring its focus to the Clan Jetty communities of Penang. Artworks and performances will relate to the culture, history or future of the Clan Jetty communities.

Workshops in poetry, dance, theatre performance, installation art, shadow puppet making and performance among others will be conducted during the week.  Workshops are free and open to people of all ages and will culminate in performances and presentations in a program to be run over the weekend.

Artists from Penang, KL and several international artists will facilitate the workshops and also present their artworks and performances in the weekend program of events.

This program is interesting, thought-provoking, educational, experiential and a lot of fun.

Ohh….last but not least, my grid girl….


Daorae is now in Tanjung Tokong

2009 November 24

Daorae Korean BBQ Restaurant is now officially open in Tanjung Tokong, just opposite Shenanigans Irish Pub. To get there, drive pass the traffic light infront of Island Plaza, on the next traffic light, make a ‘U’ turn. So it should be now on your right, about a few hundreds meter after the U turn.

I had been there once, the decos and foods are similar to the one near Complex Bukit Jambul. You can check out my previous post on DaoRae and its menu.

Here the contact number for Tanjung Tokong branch (04-891-3616)

Please call to make a booking.   :)
