The Re-Collection Project: An Exercise In Learning underscores the importance of creating a dialogue between generations of artists. This exhibition features works from the late Datuk N. Parameswaran's art collection, a respected figure in preserving the legacy of Malaysia’s pioneering artists.

This unique project, which wraps up at the Harta Space gallery in Ampang, Selangor this weekend, is a collaborative effort between the art curatorial duo Dayang Aina and Simone Tait of Studio Sayang and Sharmin Parameswaran, the daughter of the former Malaysian High Commissioner to Singapore.
