This piece seems to be Akhmal stating his love for depictions of robots and war machines in pop culture, utilising popular characters from both sides of the hemisphere - the American Optimus Prime and the Japanese Gundam - and the helicopters bring to mind television shows "Blue Thunder" and "Airwolf". Boyhood is celebrated, with the shows most boys grew to love.
After graduating from the UiTM with a BFA, Majoring in Painting in 2009-2010, Akhmal held his first solo, Rebirth, at RA Fine Arts, Kuala Lumpur, in March 2013. In 2013, his work was selected for the Arts Kuala Lumpur on the fringe of the Miami Art Basel, and he was also represented in Art Expo Malaysia. He was selected for the Young Guns exhibition at Chan Hampe Galleries, Singapore, in 2014.
