The Young Contempo Showcase II, Curate Henry Butcher and Galeri Prima, Kuala Lumpur, December 2017
Description
Created using paper quilling technique, this portrait of National Laureate Datuk Syed Ahmad Jamal involves meticulous arrangement of densely rolled and coloured paper strips. The curves that define the subject’s facial planes resemble shifting waves. Presented in minimal colour palette, the portrait is visually stimulating upon closer inspection.
A promising young artist, Azizi Latif won the Silver Award (Established Category) at the UOB Painting Of The Year 2015. He obtained his Bachelor of Fine Arts from UiTM.
