Rafiee Ghani’s works reflect a profound artistic journey that arises from his sojourns through different cities. The artist’s experiences and travels are crystallised through vibrant colours and free-flowing lines. Shades of green, purple and orange hues resembling a patchwork of overlapping shapes were combined skilfully to form a complex and arresting composition. Rafiee Ghani is one of the most well-travelled and cosmopolitan artists, on land, traversing central and western Asia, besides Europe and the United States, all adding to his visual colour bank which he synthesizes in his works. He got a degree overseas first, at the De Vrije Academic, Voor Bildeende Kunst, The Hague (1980) before returning to retake his Diploma, Mara Institute of Technology, 1985 (majoring in Printmaking trained under Ponirin Amin). He followed up with a MA (Fine Prints) at the Manchester Polytechnic, England, in 1987. His accolades include the Minor Award in the Salon Malaysia (1991) and twice in the Young Contemporary Artists competition (1984 and 1985). He also won 2nd Prize in the Malaysian Art Open in 1994. His artwork prices skyrocketed at local and foreign auction houses in recent years. Rafiee was featured for a month at the prestigious Nou Gallery, Taipei in 2018.
