The National Art Gallery (NAG) in Kuala Lumpur might be closed for the rest of the year, but there is a small space away from the main gallery building that is teeming with life.

The Konservasi exhibition, presented by Pelita Hati, at NAG's Creative Space features 83 artworks that bring awareness to issues faced by wildlife, mostly from a Malaysian context.
