Mini Wall Battle returns for its fourth series in collaboration with Merdeka Suka Cipta by Balai Seni Negara, celebrating Malaysia Day. This edition gathers young artists to express patriotism through live mural visual art, continuing our mission to empower creativity and national pride through public art.

Competition Theme

“Negaraku, Inspirasi Seniku”

This theme invites young artists to reflect on the essence of Malaysia—its people, culture, landscapes, struggles, and dreams—and channel that spirit into their visual expressions. “Negaraku, Inspirasi Seniku” celebrates the unique identity of Malaysia as a source of creative energy, urging participants to explore themes of unity, harmony, diversity, and patriotism.

Through this theme, muralists and graffiti artists are encouraged to tell personal or collective stories that symbolize the heart of the nation. Whether inspired by folklore, national heroes, everyday Malaysians, or modern aspirations, each stroke becomes a tribute to the land that shapes us.

As we approach Malaysia Day, this theme serves as a reminder that art is a powerful language of unity—capable of inspiring pride, preserving heritage, and envisioning a better future for all Malaysians.
