The cultures of Southeast Asia and the concerns of man versus environment are reflected in the Biring series. Composed with rhythmic lines full of energy layered with a variety of textures, the artwork is a celebration of passion and fearless spirit. Using large brushstrokes, the artist shapes the structure of the roosters by capturing their movements and actions. Yusof Ghani worked as an artist-illustrator at the Agriculture Ministry (1967), instructor in the Fisheries Institute, Penang (1971) and a graphic artist at Radio-Television Malaysia (1977) before he got a scholarship to obtain his BFA at the George Mason University in the United States (1981), and MFA at the Catholic University in Washington, USA (1983). On his return, he lectured at the Universiti ITM with the rank of Associate Professor. After crashing into the art scene with his Tari series, he followed up with Topeng, Wayang, Hijau, Segerak, Biring, Wajah and Ombak. Curate Henry Butcher with partners Galeri Prima and Pinkguy Gallery organised Segerak VIII: Utopia, the final edition of Segerak series, in August 2019. The exhibition received good responses.
