Taking on unique and delicate subjects, Daniel Adams got his big break with his photography project ‘Why Is Your English So Good?‘. In the series, Adams explored the racism Malaysians and other Asian students received while studying abroad, and it blew up on social media. We even interviewed him right after we found out.

Now as Merdeka is approaching, Daniel Adams wants to present Batik in its rawest form in his photography exhibition The Batik Series. Showcasing the diversity and vibrancy of Malaysia through women who don these designs; The Batik Series’ backdrop was also featured during Good Vibes Festival last July.
