The event commemorated World Architecture Day 2024 which fall on the first Monday of October. This occasion forms part of the KLAF 2024 Programme.

The Exhibition, “Vibes KL: Vibrancy and Diversity” encapsulates the essence of the city that has built a thick crust for itself. There isn’t an overarching logical curation of the exhibition except that it captures the randomness and vibrancy of people. Just as the buildings are varied and largely disorderly in downtown Kuala Lumpur, each person is a life on her own, each life being vibrant and each having a story to tell.

Photographs, illustrations and artworks are the medium that capture the spirit of life and each of these works require an immersion into the human spirit behind the work. The works require a sacrifice of time by the viewers as is the case in the normal course of living.
