It's not easy to carry on the legacy of one’s parents. But it’s a little less intimidating when you have a close friend to do it with, like with Nazura Rahime and Sharmin Parameswaran, daughters of the late art collectors Rahime Harun and Datuk N. Parameswaran.

Working with independent art curator Sarah Abu Bakar, a total of 53 artworks from their private collections were carefully selected for the Bapaku Pulang: Growing Up With Art – Selected Works From The Collections Of Nazura Rahime And Sharmin Parameswaran exhibition, currently on display at Temu House in Petaling Jaya.
