Step into a world of lush greenery and uplifting vibes in Miriam Omar’s first solo exhibition at Zhan Art Space in Petaling Jaya. Inspired by her love for nature and vibrant colours, the show is a wonderland of imagination and daydreams that blurs the boundaries of reality.

Daydreams – a natural title for the show – was conceptualised during the pandemic lockdown, when Miriam, like many others, got restless from being cooped up indoors for an extended period of time.
