The sculptures of Abdul Multhalib Musa are informed by natural surroundings and the built environment. His dynamic sculptures seek to highlight the interlinked relationship between art and architecture. Geometrical elements are transformed into three dimensional structures that convey the feeling of movement. Focusing on the continuous flow of designs, the geometrical shapes were carefully arranged to form an outstretched position which bears resemblance to a pair of wings.
Abdul Multhalib Musa graduated with a Bachelor of Architecture (Hons) from Mara University of Technology, Shah Alam, Selangor. His sculptures have earned him several awards, residencies and commissions, notable among them the Rimbun Dahan Residency in 2001 and the Australian High Commission Residency in 2004. In 2002, Multhalib won the Award of Excellence at the 6th Oita Asian Sculpture Open Competition in Japan, the Juror's Choice Award at the National Art Gallery Malaysia in 2002 before going on to be selected for the Ordos 11th Asia Arts Festival, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China, as well as the Urumqi International Urban Sculpture Symposium in Xinjiang, China in 2009.
