Fauzan Omar's work features the wondrous beauty of natural forms. Working primarily with mixed media, his iconic paintings utilise strips of torn canvas applied with paint to create incredibly textured and relief images. His assemblages of patterns create a strong impact through the deconstruction of canvas which is then transformed into his artistic forms. On a deeper level his work puts forward questions of sustainability, human consumption and the depletion of natural resources. In this set of works, a multitude of delicate forms are created in a predominantly earthy palette. Fauzan Omar holds a Diploma in Art and Design from Universiti Teknologi Mara and a Masters Degree in Painting from the Maryland Institute College of Arts, United States of America. He has exhibited locally and internationally since 1980 and has influenced a generation of Malaysian artists as an art educator from the 1980s to the 1990s. From early on in his career he was selected to represent Malaysia in Contemporary Asian Art Show at the Fukuoka Art Museum, Japan (1980); Asean Exhibition, Kuala Lumpur (1981); and India Fifth Triennial, New Delhi (1982). He has also participated in significant exhibitions such as Modernity and Beyond, Themes in Southeast Asian Art, Singapore Art Museum (1996) and at the second Asia-Pacific Triennial, Queensland Art Gallery, Australia (1996). His solo exhibitions include Rejuvenation (2005), Resonance (2007), and Come July till October: Aftermath of Fury (2013).
