No graffiti please, DBKL warns artists

Photos on cloakwork’s Instagram page show a bus stop in Kuala Lumpur before (left) and after the murals were painted. The artwork has been removed.

KUALA Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) is warning artists in the capital city to obtain a permit before putting their artwork on public facilities.

DBKL said although the artists’ efforts at beautifying public spaces were appreciated, such works must be vetted to ensure they were suitable.
