작품 상세

It’s well established that Ismail Mat Hussin has a knack for depicting scenes, infusing colours, wonder and nostalgia onto canvas. He is one of the prominent artists who incorporates batik into his paintings and infuses his entire being into his work, making the feel as if they know the artist himself just by looking at the painting. It is both endearing and warm. This endearing work takes one on a journey to the rural kampungs where ladies make a living off weaving fabric. This piece presents tranquillity, reminisces the past and daily experiences of people in the East Coast. The calm and soothing earth tones are something Ismail Mat Hussin has a proclivity for, using them often in his works.
