This set of drawings depicts the fluid movements of Silat, a traditional form of martial art. Carefully modelled with refine strokes, it is hatched with dark shades that creates an impression of three dimensionality. Focusing on the rapid movements of the figures, it reveals the technique of physical combat consisting of complex tactics. Raja Azhar spent many years in Australia, first at the Victoria College of the Arts in Melbourne (1979-1981). There, he made a name for himself winning awards like the St. Kilda in Melbourne (1980, 1981), Melbourne Lord Mayor's Prize (1981), Victoria Artist Society's Artist of the Year, Gippsland Miniature Art Prize (1982) and the Greyhound Art Prize (1989). He even set up an art gallery called Raya in Melbourne. But after 14 years, he decided to return to Malaysia in 1992 when he set up Art Case Galleries and resumed his art practices. His first solo was in 1976, when he displayed his batik works.
