Najib Bamadhaj narrates the tale of animals that have lost their natural dwelling as a result of man's intervention, in the name of development, and the bottomline is money. By contrasting magnificent golden hues with skilled techniques, the composition has allowed the animal icons to stand out and become the main focus, expressing concerns about the species seen through the eyes of the artist. Najib graduated with a BFA (Hons), majoring in Painting, from the Universiti ITM in 2010. He secured his Diploma from the Lendu, Malacca, campus in 2008. His awards include the Malacca TYT Action Portrait (2007), finalist in the MRCB Art Award (2008), 2nd Prize in Johor Open (2009), 1st Prize in both the Tanjung Heritage and Nandos competitions (2010) and Visual Arts Award (National Art Gallery, 2011). His solos entitled Pride & Prejudice (2020), Survival (2015), and Great Migration (2012) were held at Taksu Galleries in Kuala Lumpur.
