A sarong party, the female figures depicted are working on the beach untangling the fishing nets or sorting out the catches after their menfolk return from the sea. Or maybe, plain gossiping about the latest kampung happening. Good or bad catches, the women like their men work with the same purposefulness and serenity. The rainbow blend of broken colours serves to enhance the mood. This piece is among the best of Khalil’s 1990s paintings.
