Description
Edroger Rosli revisits the country’s history focusing on Kapten Hassan Osman (1927-1991), who was awarded the Military Star of Courage by British Queen Elizabeth II, for his courage during the Emergency (1948-1960). Kapt Hassan retired from the Armed Forces in 1967. P. Ramlee played him in the eponymous movie, Sarjan Hassan. Edroger graduated from the Universiti iTM in 2010. Edroger uses aids like snapshot photography and inkjet printing in his works. One work, The Greatest View of the Similarities in Features between the Pinnacles of Two Different Nations, was featured in the Young & New exhibition at HOM Art Trans, Kuala Lumpur, in 2012. Edroger graduated with a BFA from the Universiti ITM in 2009.
