This abstract painting by highly talented Syed Fakaruddin features his rendition of an imaginary landscape. Paint marks in many techniques and manners of colour application fill the square canvas. The orange sunset background forms the basis of many more layers: slabs of thick impasto in the sky to suggest clouds and short brushstrokes and impasto on the lower section depict the land. As part of "Malaysia: Rebirth", a group exhibition in Publika, Kuala Lumpur 2018, the show featured 80 artists displaying "their interpretation of the nation's journey, lessons, and aspirations and pays tribute to the resolve and fortitude of Malaysians and offers an enduring message of hope and optimism for the future". Syed Fakaruddin graduated with a bachelor's degree in fine art from Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) in Shah Alam, Selangor, in 2012. He won the Malaysia Emerging Artist Award in 2019. He has been actively participating in group shows since 2009, but the "A.D.A. (Ara Damansara Artists) Show", an exhibition at Segaris Art Center, Kuala Lumpur, in 2015, became the stepping stone for his popularity in the art scene. A highly experimental and multidisciplinary artist, Syed also produces sculptures, installations, and video work. In 2021, he presented "BRU-KON-01- Nurseri" at Studio Sarang Batu in Ara Damansara as part of the Bakat Muda Sezaman 2021 "art on-site" entry. His second solo exhibition, Tindih, was held after his six-month residency at Rimbun Dahan in 2021.
