작품 상세

Sabihis' signature style of woodblock print reflects his concerns and feelings towards the current situation around him. In this work, Sabihis brought his personal vision of tigers to life with the technique of wood carving. The roaring tigers resemble a mirrored image, accented with different contrasting colours. A triangular shape was formed in the centre of the image which anchors the composition, accompanied with decorative cloud patterns that evoke a sense of harmony. Embrace the fighting spirit of tiger, roar! Sabihis has been a full time artist since he graduated from the UiTM with a BFA, majoring in Printmaking, in 2011 (Diploma in UiTM Machang in Kelantan, 2009). He made headlines when his woodcut print, Awang Hitam, won him the Malaysian Emerging Artist Award competition organised by Hom Art Trans and Galeri Chandan in 2013. In 2014, he won the Bronze Award for Established Artists category of the UOB Painting Of The Year. He was in the Studio Pisang group with Shafiq Nordin and Hisyamuddin Abdullah. He was represented in Art Expo Malaysia since 2014. He took part in the 2015 Art Bazaar Jakarta, and was selected for the exhibition called The Collective Young From Southeast Asia at Mizuma Gallery, Gillman Barracks, Singapore in 2015. He won the Young Guns Award in 2017. With 3 Awards under his belt, he still remains humble, being the ‘Award Collector'. He has participated in group exhibitions such as Transit 1x1 (2021), Cerita Objek (2020), and Neo Baroque - A Malaysian Reinterpretation (2019).
