The current alarming situation of environmental degradation has always been a prominent theme in my body of work. It serves as a means to draw significant attention from the public, urging them to pause and reflect on an issue that has been neglected for far too long. Rather than creating something overly literal, I incorporate abstract elements and principles of art, such as lines, geometrical shapes, and contours. Additionally, I employ techniques like collages to stimulate discussions.
I enjoy examining the natural landscape through my own perspective and inviting others to do the same. In today's world, there are a myriad of subjects to address, but I believe two topics deserve everyone's attention: the economy, which compels many to toil relentlessly to survive and maintain their sanity, and climate issues resulting from human negligence and ignorance. These are the primary themes that currently inspire and shape my artistic endeavours.

NOOR ZAHRAN
My art reflects the intricate relationship between reality, symbols, and society, specifically the cultural significance and symbolism embedded in constructing a collective understanding of existence. In our modern society, the saturation of images, symbols, and signs has led to a disconnection from reality itself. Representations and simulacra have taken on lives of their own, detached from their original referents and existing solely within a realm of signs and symbols, creating a hyperreal version of reality.
I choose to focus on the colour blue because it has the power to evoke feelings of pain and melancholy. Like the endless depths of an ocean, it symbolises sorrow, loneliness, and heartache. The sombre shades of blue reflect the profound depths of our emotions, reminding us of moments of loss, grief, and longing. It serves as a reminder of the fragile nature of the human experience, capable of touching the deepest recesses of our souls.
Through this series, my goal is to transcend the boundaries of reality and create a sanctuary where imagination and reality converge, allowing for profound connections and contemplation. Ultimately, I see my art as a visual dialogue, fostering deeper connections among individuals and the people around us.

AMAR SHAHID
These five artworks encapsulate the essence of my current artistic practice, offering a glimpse into a range of observations that blend analytical precision with a touch of imaginative wonder. Building upon my previous exploration of materiality and the act of replicating from photographs, I have delved into the realm of symbolism and the transformative power of Semantic Shifts. Drawing upon the rich tapestry of cultural symbols indigenous to my heritage, I have embraced the Katydid as a visual linguistic form, diverging from the conventional Western tropes.
My artistic inquiry has also led me to revisit the Showa poster paintings, contemplating the creation of a new iteration that expands upon previous iterations. In tandem with this, I have embarked on a journey of further material exploration, seeking to unravel the perceived intrinsic value within artistic mediums. One such exploration involves the act of gilding, where I have pushed the boundaries by extending the use of gold leaf from the picture plane out onto the frame, transforming it into an integral part of the artwork.

SYAHMI JAMALUDDIN
As an artist, I am deeply fascinated by Malay parables and fairy tales. They inspire my creative exploration as cautionary tales, reflecting the events around me. I visualise my art as windows, symbolic illusions that invite viewers to broaden their perspectives. Through layering, I create ambiguity, mirroring the complexity of problem-solving and observation. This fusion of parables, metaphorical windows, and layered compositions aims to evoke introspection and invite profound contemplation of the human experience.

AZAIKMAL RASHID
My work is inspired by weather patterns, which I then interpret through changes in shape. I employ the concept of Abstract Expressionism, drawing and painting the evolving cloud formations that embody warm and cool colours. Weather patterns in a particular area fluctuate due to climate, wind, temperature, rainfall, light intensity, and altitude, resulting in a diverse range of colours. In my artwork, I focus on the cloud shapes, infusing them with colours that reflect the climate. In colder atmospheres, clouds tend to exhibit shades of blue, white, and green. The sun’s rays contribute to warm hues, while twilight brings forth red, purple, and orange tones. To enhance the surface, light, and tone of my pieces, I utilise a variety of materials. Adhering to the principles and significance of Abstract Expressionism allows me the freedom to transform shapes and manipulate colours within each canvas composition.

"SIRI JENDELA” (2023)
“...jendela merupakan penghubung antara realiti dan fantasi. Dimana menerusi jendela, saya dapat lihat keadaan, perilaku serta budaya yang ada diluar sana. Lalu saya terjemahkan apa yang saya lihat menerusi karya-karya saya..”
The concept of "JENDELA," meaning "window," symbolises the connection between individual perspectives and surroundings. This metaphorical window allows glimpses of the environment, inviting sunlight to illuminate spaces and unlock endless possibilities. Inspired by this notion, my artwork reflects observations, experiences, and life lessons.
Blending geometric and organic forms, I create an intimate space that bridges the external world with our innermost feelings. The interplay of surroundings and emotions accentuates gestural qualities, evoking distinct moods within the heart's enclosed space. Through experimentation with strokes, lines, shapes, and colours, I convey the depth of my observations and emotions, engaging the viewer's perception and shaping spaces within their eyes.
Ultimately, I invite viewers to engage with my art and let it resonate within their own unique narratives. It is the viewer's perspective that determines the story and meaning behind each piece. When artwork captivates and compels, holding the viewer's gaze, it becomes a profoundly meaningful creation.

LIM TONG XIN
Unidentified creatures that were born hundreds of millions of years ago have given rise to emotional and self-conscious life forms, namely human beings and animals. These life forms were blessed by God with the ability to shape the world and provided with the basic necessities of life. Throughout time, various forms of life have emerged on Earth. The unidentified creatures possess advanced technological knowledge that grants human beings high intelligence (IQ). They utilise humans as subjects for experiments, aiming to create a sentient robot. However, these robots lack emotions and could potentially threaten humanity's existence in the future.
The fusion of humans and machines has resulted in a new form of life in the future world, capable of interacting and reproducing with different creatures endlessly. These beings, characterised by red flesh, are on the verge of being digitised. They no longer experience genuine emotions and feelings but instead continue to propagate until the world is ultimately destroyed.

Kintsugi, the traditional Japanese art form, resonates deeply with personal growth. By repairing broken pottery with gold-infused lacquer, kintsugi celebrates history and imperfections. This philosophy serves as a metaphor for embracing one's own journey of self-improvement, which forms the core of my work. Exploring themes of embracing imperfections, self-reflection, and the beauty in uniqueness, my art weaves together these ideas into a narrative of personal growth. Inspired by kintsugi's celebration of imperfections, my aim is to convey the profound beauty that arises from resilience, transformation, and individuality.

The mission is to construct dot mark-making on the surface/canvas. The paintings create ethereal spaces that offer perspective as people approach and move around them. Upon close inspection, the size and spacing of the coloured paint application are meticulously controlled, while the overall effect evokes a sense of mystery, drawing inspiration from the pointillism technique. If anything, they strive to align with the mission statement articulated by Rothko, who once said, "I'm not an abstract artist, I'm not interested in the relationship of colour or form or anything else. I'm interested only in expressing basic human emotions" (Wallpaper, / Art, 22 October 2015, by Michael Slenske).
I paint at a slow and steady pace, carefully applying the colours on the canvas dot by dot to avoid mixing or smudging. The pointillist style is challenging to execute, but the concept is straightforward. Rather than mixing colours on the palette, I use small dots of distinct colour and rely on optical mixing to achieve the desired effect. The degree of optical mixing depends on the size of the paint dots applied and the viewing distance. Smaller dots result in more pronounced optical mixing. Through this process, my aim is to capture the essence of Rothko's and Anne Truitt's colour fields, as well as Damien Hirst's spot paintings. I look forward to developing a body of work that is pure and authentic, while maintaining its elemental energy from the edge.

Amsyar Ramly works with a pointillism technique that uses 3D texture to explore nuances between form and element. Amsyar’s paintings are expressive and saturated. When seen at a distance, his paintings appear more two dimensional, while at a closer proximity, Amsyar takes us to a stimulating depth of expressive colours, enriching our immediate view with an arresting visual play that is fragmented yet homogenising. Amsyar pursued a degree in fine art at UiTM Shah Alam, Selangor in 2015 and recently held a solo show at SARENG, Kuala Lumpur.

FARIS RIDZWAN
The 'Masonry' series represents my exploration of identity, history, and the symbiotic relationship between human-made structures and the natural world. I am deeply fascinated by the profound ability of bricks and stones to encapsulate stories, memories, and cultural significance within their essence. In my artwork, I strive to capture the serene beauty of Indonesia's landscape, drawing inspiration from the rhythmic arrangement of stepping stones scattered throughout the country.
These stones exhibit a delightful diversity in size, colour, and composition, reflecting the rich geological formations found in Indonesia. Smooth river pebbles, weathered by the passage of time, offer a gentle and comforting path, while rough-hewn stones evoke the ruggedness of volcanic landscapes. Each stone, with its unique shape and texture, invites contemplation and fosters a deeper connection with the environment. Through my art, I aim to immerse myself in the tranquility and captivating beauty of these surroundings.

PING
When it comes to art, I have somewhat contradictory desires. I want to make the work, because I feel that there's something interesting that I'd like to share, but I also dread making the work because, often, it's about something that’s very personal, something very vulnerable; and needless to say, revealing our vulnerabilities is universally undesirable. I want, and I do not want. I show, and also, I hide.
These five works consider the duality of "hiding" and "revealing"; specifically, how they can co-exist and what new meanings may emerge from the within.

EFFI SYAFIQ
My work revolves around storytelling within the human environment, particularly focusing on the intricate relationship between people and their surroundings. This subject matter holds a personal significance for me as my own existence has transitioned from the tranquil ambiance of a village to the bustling environment of a busy metropolis over the past few years. While this urban setting fails to instil a sense of tranquillity within me, I consciously choose to capture and depict its essence through my art, aiming to transform it into something captivating and beautiful.
In my artistic process, I draw inspiration from the vivid imagery of a dense cityscape, such as the vibrant streets of Kuala Lumpur. Utilising my imagination as the primary wellspring of creativity, I construct images that transcend reality, fusing elements from the original city scene with my own imagination. Incorporating principles and elements of art, including lines, forms, spaces, colours, textures, rhythms, harmonies, variations, and balances, I meticulously craft a new visual narrative that conveys the essence and message inherent in the original appearance.
Through my paintings and visuals, I strive to encapsulate the spirit of the urban environment, inviting viewers to delve into the multidimensional layers of these artistic creations. By juxtaposing the chaotic nature of city life with elements of beauty, I aim to elicit contemplation and reflection, offering an alternative perspective on the bustling world we inhabit.

My artwork is a reflection of my vision and the experiences I've had in Indonesia. I have a deep appreciation for the stunning natural landscapes and the diverse geographical features that define this country. Each region, from Jogjakarta to Bandung and Jakarta, possesses its own distinct charm and characteristics, which have greatly influenced me as a visual artist.
When creating my art, I take inspiration from the magnificent shapes of mountains and the captivating landscapes that surround them. By merging geometric and organic forms, I seek to capture the essence of each place's unique qualities. This combination allows me to convey the harmony between the structured and the natural, resulting in captivating and evocative compositions.
