The East Coast of Malay Peninsula is rich with its natural habitat of flora and fauna. The strategic location with a long coastal line facing the South China Sea contributes the best fishing area for the population. There were several Malay kingdoms established in the East Coast area such as the Terengganu Sultanate, Kelantan Sultanate and Patani Sultanate. These kingdoms managed to produce fine artistic works throughout the centuries especially on wood carving, metalwork and textile. The population made nature their home and incorporated the environment around them into their daily life activities as source of materials and decorative inspirations. This paper will study the relationship between nature and the population of the East Coast area in producing their works of art.ennatureEast CoastMalay PeninsulaartCultural Ecosystem: Relationship Between Nature and Development of Malay Art in The East Coast of Malay PeninsulaUR-Proceedings
