Abstract

Television is a popular medium that is used as a propaganda tool in spreading ideologies. As such, the continuous propagation of ideologies through television fiddles with the sentiment of the public over time. This is obvious through various media campaigns that was broadcasted through television during the 14th general election of Malaysia in 2018. These media campaigns propagate the idea of ‘change’ by presenting audio-visual information that instigates a euphoric reaction. ‘Beauty (fool) of destruction’ is an experimental video art prompted by such propagation and its effect on society. This essay discusses the creation of the video work and its adaptation of the Malay proverb ‘Indah Khabar dari Rupa’ as a reaction to the political campaigns of the 14th general election. Specifically, it examines video as an avenue for responding towards the wield of ideology on electronic media and as a medium of expression for new forms of art making.
