The theme for the artworks chosen for the exhibition of ‘Art Blossom” is “ Colour and Culture”. There are two different series of works have been selected under the theme of “Colour and Cultute”. The 1st series is : “Makan-Makan”, this Series is a thematic approach of my early works which I created during my stay in Scotland. I made this series of works based on my large scale paintings of ‘Celebration”. In the “Makan-Makan ” series, I used some kitchen utensils of cutlery, chopstick and bowl to represent/integrate the culture of west and east. The 2nd series of work is: Colour of Mother Nature.
