- #21 Features Masjid Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah which is one of the landmark in Shah Alam Features the landmark of Shah Alam – Masjid Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah From the left part of this mural art, we can found that those Shah Alam residents who love cleanliness are working together to clean up their residence area. Besides, from the right part of this mural art, we can found that this mural art is probably highlighting the fact that MBSA spent a lot in putting up those bicycle lanes around Shah Alam city center.
- #23 After visiting and having a clearer look of both mural arts, we can conclude that the first two murals which are produced in Malacca are more on their history. The artists who actually designed such mural wanted their villagers to be conscious about their history, how much they have been through during the hard times when the Dutch conquered them. The Malacca people did the dancing for the Dutch’s entertainment and it was extremely compliant. The previous incident mentioned was shown in the second mural named Dancing Dutch. The main reason that the murals are presented this way was the artists wanted the people there to be thankful for having a peaceful environment now. Well, the two arts invented in Klang Valley basically assert on non-verbal communication. The art that was named “Expression” says it all. Expression is defined as the answer that shows on one’s face, which means we can probably guess one’s feeling by their faces. By looking at the last mural art that we have chosen, on the left side of the painting, we can clearly observe that the people in the art are smiling and raising up their hands, which represents happiness and probably the sign of working as a team. The middle part was a picture of 2 people cleaning up the residential area, and this was drew to remind us to keep our surrounding clean. The right side of the picture has displayed with two happy cyclist, which highlights on cycling can maintain the fitness and healthiness of our body. And healthy makes everyone of us feel great.
