EXHIBITIONS FROM 2014

The  first  solo  exhibition  debut  of  Ernest  Zacharevic  revealing  his  latest  art  venture that  incorporates  preloved  junks, discarded  treasures,  and  overlooked  secret  items into  the  works  of  art.

THINK ABOUT IT is Hin Bus Depot's second exhibition and first group show, exhibiting works from local talents Bibichun, Kangblabla, Renny Cheng, Tan Kai Sheuan and Low Chee Peng, Penang-based UK artist Thomas Powell, and introducing to Malaysia for the first time, UK artist/filmmaker Gabriel Marques. Some of them are the artists that gave you Rescube 2012 & 2013 for George Town Festival as well as some new faces. 

Graffiti In Progress features the works of eight Malaysian street artists: Kenji Chai, Cloak, Drewfunk, Katun, Siek, Case2, Vlore and Nestwo.

This exhibition is a tribute to the people of Penang, celebrating the collective spirit of those who call this island home. Penang is more than a retirement destination; it's a place to live, play, create, and inspire. Kompleks Tun Abdul Razak (KOMTAR), built in the late 80s, stands as an iconic yet abandoned symbol of Penang, earning the name 'THE LOST GIANT.' The island is renowned for its street food, hospitality, street art, and heritage, all within easy reach in its perpetual summer. However, amid these treasures, stories of shattered dreams prompt us to protect our home from becoming just another commercialized city.

Urban  Xchange  is  a  street  art  project  in  line  with  the  vision  of  Urban  Nation  and  Hin  Bus  Depot.  It aims  to  bring  artists together  to  enable  cultural,  artistic  and  social  exchange  that  will  enrich Penang's  urban  landscape  as  well  as  provide artists  with  an  opportunity  to  explore  and  get inspired  by  the  unique  culture  of  the  island.

British artist Thomas Powell, who has spent the last five years exploring South East Asia, particularly Penang, acknowledges the historical influence of the British on Malaysia. This exhibition visually represents the enduring impact of both the past and the present.
