Malaysian Roadmap: Creative Directory

This is a directory featuring artists, designers, organisations, and creative practitioners from across Malaysia, with a special focus on those who create work that responds to environmental challenges, diversity and representation
The database was developed in 2023, as part of our research project “Malaysian Roadmap: Creatives, Communities and the Environment”, commissioned by British Council, and features creatives who participated in our research survey.
The directory is divided into three core regions:

  1. East Malaysia including Labuan

  2. Klang Valley

  3. West Malaysia excluding Klang Valley

Participants were then organised into 8 different creative fields

CREATIVE HUB / COMMUNITIES / EVENTS

GALLERY / EXHIBITIONS / INSTALLATIONS

ARTISTS / DESIGNER / COLLECTIVES

CRAFTS / FASHION / CULINARY ARTS / MARKETS

MUSIC / MUSIC PRODUCTION & EVENTS / STUDIOS

FILM / PHOTOGRAPHY / PRODUCTION

PERFORMING ARTS / DANCE / THEATRE

ACADEMIC/ RESEARCH & PUBLICATION / MUSEUM
