ABSOLUT VODKA CREATIVITY IN ARTS with Borneo Ink

On the 23rd of September, I went to an  ABSOLUT in Collaboration with Borneo Ink to Reinforce Creative Arts in Sabah press conference and event.
This event is a first of its kind to be held in Malaysia what more to say in Kota Kinabalu city! Read on for full coverage of that night's event!

The Press Release


The Entrance to B.E.D.
Don't mistaken B.E.D as a real Bed. It's a pretty happening club for party goers in KK!
'Antu Gerasi' design by Eddie from Borneo Ink
The story behind the mask:

  • Tattoo has a long history in the land of Borneo. The tribal tattoo is known to represent the social status, rites of passage in the tribe and also signifies protection. 
  • 'Antu Gerasi' or known as the 'Head of Demon' is the traditional mask drawing on shields by Iban - one of the indigenous groups in East Malaysia.
  • The larger circular eyes and mouth bristling with fangs are invested with powers to ward off evil spirits.
  • Today, 'Antu Gerasi' represents Iban culture and is a popular art in various designs ranging from decorative items, drawings, tattoo, etc.
My favourite part going to Press conference =P
