Malaysians pay homage to Carrie Fisher through art

By now you’ve probably heard the passing of Carrie Fisher, who famously played the role of Princess Leia in George Lucas’ epic space franchise, Star Wars.

The American actress, writer, producer, and humorist passed away at the age of 60 four days after going into cardiac arrest during an airplane flight.

For many, the news came as a shock as Carrie was a symbol of strength and courage. Her philosophy and outlook on life, despite suffering from bipolar disorder and drug addiction, served as an inspiration to many.

Based on these artworks created by Malaysian artists, her legacy will continue to live on.
