From fallen logs to art pieces


A motorist passing by (from left) the Jigsaw Puzzle, Wau and Paper Plane wooden sculptures at the pocket park. The park costing RM23, 000 was launched on Aug 3 with funding from six councillors.

VISITORS will have a nostalgic walk through the themed pocket park at the Jalan Perak-Jalan Free School junction where five art sculptures depicting old-school games stand.

The wooden sculptures – Gasing (Top), Lastik (Catapult), Jigsaw Puzzle, Paper Plane and Wau (Moon-kite) – were carved using the logs of angsana and rain trees which fell during a huge storm in Penang in November 2017.
