Figurative painter Hisyamuddin Abdullah's paintings often reflect his observations on life and society. The warm palette adds a sense of vibrancy to the composition, as the artist renders a portrait of his father in three quarter profile. The face is rendered with affection, and the sitter's emotions are showed through his expressive eyes. The artist is a filial son. Hisyamuddin Abdullah received his bachelor's degree in Fine Art from UiTM Shah Alam in 2012. In 2013, he had two art residencies, one in Bali, Indonesia, and the other in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. His awards include Young Guns Awards Malaysia 2016, and 3rd Winner in Drawing at the Tanjong Heritage National Level Art Competition. In 2014, Hisyamuddin had a solo exhibition with Taksu in Kuala Lumpur titled "SArKAs" followed by his second solo exhibition in Taksu Kuala Lumpur titled Kota(k) Magis in July 2021. He has participated in numerous group shows namely #Skull (2019), Axis By Praxis: Identity In Transition (2018), Human Being (2019), XIX Nineteen (2019) etc at various local galleries.
