• Art is more than just a piece of decoration on the wall; a piece of art can stir our emotions, evoke a reaction and stimulate our intellect.

• Through art, an artist expresses the depth of his or her soul, essence and thoughts . Art is in itself a universal language. Without the use of words or language, art conveys a profound message; art may reveal truths or project a fantasy, protest injustice, raise social consciousness, invoke spiritual awareness, express philosophical and moral values and immortalize its subject (and artist).

• Alyssa Galeri is located in the centre of the UNESCO heritage city of Georgetown,Penang, a former British colony and the site of heritage buildings, vibrant multiethnic and multiracial culture, famous and authentic hawker foods, and warm and friendly Penangites.
