Where there’s a will, there’s a way. For Sabah-based art collective Pangrok Sulap, the mission to help out and empower local communities has been a tireless one.

To start off the year, Pangrok Sulap has released 10 editions of a fund-raising artwork titled Cahaya Kehidupan (or Living Light), which are available now. All proceeds from this sale will go towards the funding of a mini hydroelectric generator that will benefit 27 households in Kampung Penulangon, a village located in the Trusmadi forest reserve in Ranau, Sabah.
