Creative Highlight – 18 March 2026
Plain fans, once unremarkable, were immersed in radiant lacquer oils.

With each stroke, their surfaces awakened, glowing with fresh vitality. What began as everyday objects transformed into singular works of art—alive with color, character, and individuality.

This metamorphosis beautifully embodied the power of turning the ordinary into the extraordinary by the kids at P5A UMMC
