RAT

Reclusive graffiti artist-turned-activist tee maker and a practitioner of “subvertising” (aka subversive advertising), Rat loves culture jamming and rearranging battle cries of corporations into witty call-for-action messages against them. Touché to all in advertising!

If your tee could change the world, what would it say?
“Some people become cops because they want to make the world a better place. Some people become vandals because they want to make the world a better-looking place.”

What’s your personal view on fashion trends and the people who follow them?
I wish I was still printing t-shirts.

What do you dislike the most about Malaysian society?
A lot of people are not taking initiative because no one told them to be like that.

What would you like to see people on the streets wearing more of?
Something from the steampunk era.

If you had to design a national uniform to be worn by all citizens of Malaysia, what would it look like?
A huge, stupid square box saying 1Malaysia.
