This afternoon, Secretary-General of ASEAN Dr Kao Kim Hourn received the resident artists of the KONNECT ASEAN Artists Residency Program (KAARP), Cathrine Oslo from Indonesia and Eunji Cho from the Republic of Korea (ROK). Dr Kao congratulated the artists for being selected in the residency program and advised them pursue their project goals by taking inspiration from ASEAN’s longstanding relationship with ROK as they collaboratively build their artwork.

KAARP aims to foster the development of artistic production networks and forge long-term connection between Southeast Asian artists and their Korean counterparts.
