[Self] Calligraphy Exhibition Jan 09

Sunday afternoon was spent looking at some calligraphy pieces in the Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall (which is actually in KL somewhere at the end of Chinatown).

Although I was dissapointed at the extremely small scale of the entire display and also the creativity (in the poetics and writing style), there were a few pieces worth capturing on the camera phone.

My fav was: 未受天磨非好汉, 不遭人忌是庸才。



A bad translation would be: If you haven't endured the challenges from The Heavens, you aren't a man; if you haven't aroused jealousy & ire from people, (that's because) you merely lack talent.
