Ever since I was in Secondary School studying in Sekolah Aminuddin Baki Kuala Lumpur, I have always regarded the pinafore to be a highly attractive piece of attire. When properly tailored and made to fit its wearer, it accentuates and flatters the female figure, regardless of size and shape. In short, it can be quite sexy. My only wish was that more Malay girls would wear them, for I do find Malay girls to be very attractive.

I also wish that we actually gave a shit about our country's 50th birthday.

Exhibited at an exhibition of the same title, PUBLIKA Art Row, Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA, 2013.
