Retail Paradise-Sculpture

The "Retail Paradise-Sculpture" is a steel-rod artwork on the famous Lebuh Campbell (Campbell Street), part of the "Marking George Town" public art project. This sculpture pays tribute to Campbell Street's history as the premier shopping street and the "retail paradise" of Penang in its heyday. The street was once the equivalent of London's Bond Street, lined with shops selling the latest fashion, textiles, and luxury goods.

The sculpture would humorously depict a scene of bustling commerce from that era, celebrating the street's glamorous past and its important role as the commercial heart of the city. It's a nostalgic and informative piece that adds to the historical narrative of this still-vibrant shopping street.
