"Now is every" is an exhibition of my representing artists recent works. " What is the new works by so and so artist ? " This is the kind of question that I have been asked often. So for this year, I decide to put up an exhibition with no theme but showing the latest works by my representing artists so as to answer the question in one go! I find it extremely challenging to be able to get my artists to be " on time " so this exhibition has fallen behind time so as to say, but no worry, here it is and I think it is still a strong collection of works.

Maroc- ready for an experience of Morocco

Well, the exhibition is ready. Jeffry the Photographer is happy and I am happy too. I hope you will truly have a real Moroccan experience! See you.

About Maroc:

‘Maroc’ in French, which refers to Morocco features several series of unique arts, culture and scenic landscapes in Morocco captured through lens by Professional Photographer, Jeffry Lim. The uniqueness of Morocco’s natural beauty inspired him to capture an interesting mix of a vast geographical landscape comprising of mountain terrains, river, valleys, desert, ocean, countryside and ancient historical cities where one can rarely see in a single country. Some of the interesting shots included the Great Sahara on North Africa, one of the world’s largest tanneries located in the mysterious city called Fes and the infamous cascading blue town in Chefchaouen. It was his childhood dream to visit the largest tannery and the Sahara.

As a traveller, he was able to experience the rich heritage and cultures, derived from the mix influences of Berbers, Arabs, and Jews to Spanish and Portuguese.

He visited the entire country on a rented car. The self-drive experience was truly rewarding for him despite having to be extra careful in some areas. The more places he explored, the better he understood how blessed we are.
